Kaplansky-type zero-divisor conjecture for non-inert semi-latin quandles
Kaplansky-type zero-divisor conjecture for non-inert semi-latin quandles
Let be an integral domain with unity and let be a semi-latin quandle, meaning a quandle whose left and right translations satisfy the relevant latin-type conditions, and assume that is non-inert. The quandle ring is the -algebra with basis and multiplication induced by the quandle operation. Kaplansky-type conjecture. The quandle ring has no zero-divisors. This is proposed as a quandle analogue of Kaplansky's zero-divisor conjecture; the paper proves the claim for several orderable classes, but not in the stated generality.
