FINITENESS OF CANONICAL QUOTIENTS OF DEHN QUANDLES OF SURFACES
The Dehn quandle of a closed orientable surface is the set of isotopy classes of nonseparating simple closed curves with a natural quandle structure arising from Dehn twists. In this paper, we consider the finiteness of some canonical quotients of these quandles. For a surface of positive genus, we give a precise description of the 2-quandle of its Dehn quandle. Further, with some exceptions for genus more than 2, we determine all values of n for which the n-quandle of its Dehn quandle is finite. The result can be thought of as the Dehn quandle analogue of a similar result of Hoste and Shanahan for link quandles [‘Links with finite n-quandles’, Algebr. Geom. Topol.17(5) (2017), 2807–2823]. We also compute the size of the smallest nontrivial quandle quotient of the Dehn quandle of a surface. Along the way, we prove that the involutory quotient of an Artin quandle is precisely the corresponding Coxeter quandle, and also determine the smallest nontrivial quotient of a braid quandle.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the Australian Mathematical Society is the oldest journal of the Society, and is well established in its coverage of all areas of pure mathematics and mathematical statistics. It seeks to publish original high-quality articles of moderate length that will attract wide interest. Papers are carefully reviewed, and those with good introductions explaining the meaning and value of the results are preferred.
