Quandle-ring cocycle enhancement for prime knots up to 12 crossings
Quandle-ring cocycle enhancement for prime knots up to 12 crossings
Let be a quandle and let be a -cocycle. Let
be the set of idempotents in the quandle ring , assume that is a quandle, and let be a -cocycle. Quandle-ring enhancement conjecture. The cocycle invariant is an enhancement of the cocycle invariant for all prime oriented knots up to 12 crossings. The conjecture is based on computations distinguishing the listed knots and proposes that passing to idempotents in a quandle ring yields strictly more informative cocycle invariants in this range.
