Quiver categorification of quandle invariants (Sam Nelson, CMC)
Estella 2099Quiver structures are naturally associated to subsets of the endomorphism sets of quandles and other knot-coloring structures, providing a natural form of categorification of homset invariants and their enhancements. In […]
