A Galois-Theoretic Approach to the Covering Theory of Quandles
نویسنده
چکیده
The purpose of this article is to clarify the relationship between the algebraic notion of quandle covering introduced by M. Eisermann and the categorical notion of covering arising from Galois theory. A crucial role is played by the adjunction between the variety of quandles and its subvariety of trivial quandles.

A History of Selected Topics in Categorical Algebra I: From Galois Theory to Abstract Commutators and Internal Groupoids
This paper is a chronological survey, with no proofs, of a direction in categorical algebra, which is based on categorical Galois theory and involves generalized central extensions, commutators, and internal groupoids in Barr exact Mal’tsev and more general categories. Galois theory proposes a notion of central extension, and motivates the study of internal groupoids, which is then used as an a...
متن کاملQuandle Coverings and Their Galois Correspondence
This article establishes the algebraic covering theory of quandles. For every connected quandle Q with base point q ∈ Q, we explicitly construct a universal covering p : (Q̃, q̃) → (Q,q). This in turn leads us to define the algebraic fundamental group π1(Q,q) := Aut(p) = {g ∈ Adj(Q)′ | qg = q}, where Adj(Q) is the adjoint group of Q. We then establish the Galois correspondence between connected c...
متن کاملALGEBRAS WITH CYCLE-FINITE STRONGLY SIMPLY CONNECTED GALOIS COVERINGS
Let $A$ be a nite dimensional $k-$algebra and $R$ be a locally bounded category such that $R rightarrow R/G = A$ is a Galois covering dened by the action of a torsion-free group of automorphisms of $R$. Following [30], we provide criteria on the convex subcategories of a strongly simply connected category R in order to be a cycle- nite category and describe the module category of $A$. We p...
متن کاملHomology Theory for the Set-Theoretic Yang-Baxter Equation and Knot Invariants from Generalizations of Quandles
We propose an algebraic structure generalizing quandles, that is analogous to biquandles. A homology theory is developed for set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equations, and knot invariants are constructed by generalized colorings and Yang-Baxter cocycles.
متن کاملUniversal Covers and Category Theory in Polynomial and Differential Galois Theory
The category of finite dimensional modules for the proalgebraic differential Galois group of the differential Galois theoretic closure of a differential field F is equivalent to the category of finite dimensional F spaces with an endomorphism extending the derivation of F . This paper presents an expository proof of this fact modeled on a similar equivalence from polynomial Galois theory, whose...
