Affine extensions of multiple conjugation quandles and augmented MCQ Alexander pairs. (English) Zbl 1473.57018

Summary: A multiple conjugation quandle is an algebra whose axioms are motivated from handlebody-knot theory. Any linear extension of a multiple conjugation quandle can be described by using a pair of maps called an MCQ Alexander pair. In this paper, we show that any affine extension of a multiple conjugation quandle can be described by using a quadruple of maps, called an augmented MCQ Alexander pair.
