Quandle colorings with non-commutative flows (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
This is a joint work with Masahide Iwakiri, Yeonhee Jang and Kanako Oshiro.
We introduce quandle coloring invariants and quandle cocycle invariants
with non-commutative flows for knots, spatial graphs, handlebody-knots,
where a handlebody-knot is a handlebody embedded in the $3$-sphere.
Two handlebody-knots are equivalent if one can be transformed into the
other by an isotopy of $S^3$.
The quandle coloring (resp. cocycle) invariant is a ``twisted'' quandle
coloring (resp. cocycle) invariant.
