Combined injectivity conjecture for rack homology operations on odd dihedral quandles

Let RkR_k be an odd dihedral quandle, and let (h0)(h'_0)_* and (hs)(h_s)_* be the induced homology operations

(h0):Hn+1R(Rk)Hn+2R(Rk),(h'_0)_*:H_{n+1}^R(R_k)\longrightarrow H_{n+2}^R(R_k), (hs):HnR(Rk)Hn+2R(Rk).(h_s)_*:H_n^R(R_k)\longrightarrow H_{n+2}^R(R_k).

Combined injectivity conjecture. For odd kk and n>1n>1, the direct-sum map

(h0)(hs):Hn+1R(Rk)HnR(Rk)Hn+2R(Rk)(h'_0)_*\oplus(h_s)_*:H_{n+1}^R(R_k)\oplus H_n^R(R_k)\longrightarrow H_{n+2}^R(R_k)

is a monomorphism. This strengthens the separate injectivity expectations for the two rack-homology operations introduced in the paper; it is presented as a future direction and remains open.
