Small Connected Quandles and Their Knot Colorings

This website contains computational results on small connected quandles and their knot colorings
obtained by W. Edwin Clark and Timothy Yeatman.

Background

Go to Quandle Cocycle Knot Invariants for backgound material on quandles and their knot colorings.

Applications of these computational results can be found at the website Quandle Colorings and Invariants of Knots in the Table.

The paper Quandle Colorings and of Knots and Applications is based on computations posted in this and the above mentioned websites.
