On left distributive left idempotent groupoids

summary:We study the groupoids satisfying both the left distributivity and the left idempotency laws. We show that they possess a canonical congruence admitting an idempotent groupoid as factor. This congruence gives a construction of left idempotent left distributive groupoids from left distributive idempotent groupoids and right constant groupoids

Distributive and trimedial quasigroups of order 243

We enumerate three classes of non-medial quasigroups of order $243=3^5$ up to isomorphism. There are $17004$ non-medial trimedial quasigroups of order $243$ (extending the work of Kepka, B\'en\'eteau and Lacaze), $92$ non-medial distributive quasigroups of order $243$ (extending the work of Kepka and N\v{e}mec), and $6$ non-medial distributive Mendelsohn quasigroups of order $243$ (extending the work of Donovan, Griggs, McCourt, Opr\v{s}al and Stanovsk\'y). The enumeration technique is based on affine representations over commutative Moufang loops, on properties of automorphism groups of commutative Moufang loops, and on computer calculations with the \texttt{LOOPS} package in \texttt{GAP}

Skew left braces and 2-reductive solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation

We study 2-reductive non-involutive non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation. We give a combinatorial construction of any such solution of any (even infinite) size. We also prove that solutions associated to a skew left brace are 2-reductive if and only if the skew left brace is nilpotent of class 2. Moreover, all such skew left braces are actually bi-skew left braces. We focus on these structures and we give several equivalent properties characterizing solutions associated to bi-skew left braces.Comment: 21 page

Cocyclic braces and indecomposable cocyclic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation

We study indecomposable involutive set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation with cyclic permutation groups (cocyclic solutions). In particular, we show that there is no one-to-one correspondence between indecomposable cocyclic solutions and cocyclic braces which contradicts recent results in \cite{Rump21}
