Twisted virtual biracks and their twisted virtual link invariants
Published 27 May 2011 in math.GT and math.QA | (1105.5663v2)
Abstract: A virtual link can be understood as a link in a trivial I-bundle over an orientable compact surface with genus. A twisted virtual link is a link in a trivial I-bundle over a not-necessarily orientable compact surface. A twisted virtual birack is an algebraic structure with axioms derived from the twisted virtual Reidemeister moves. We extend a method previously used with racks and biracks to the twisted case to define computable invariants of twisted virtual links using finite twisted virtual biracks with birack rank $N\ge 1$. As an application, we classify twist structures on the virtual Hopf link.
