Permutation representations of left quasigroups

چکیده
The concept of a permutation representation has recently been extended from groups to quasigroups. Following a suggestion of Walter Taylor, the concept is now further extended to left quasigroups. The paper surveys the current state of the theory, giving new proofs where necessary to cover the general case of left quasigroups. Both the Burnside Lemma and the Burnside algebra appear in this new context.

The permutation representation theory of groups has been extended, through quasigroups, to one-sided left (or right) quasigroups. The current paper establishes a link with the theory of ordered sets, introducing the concept of a Burnside order that generalizes the poset of conjugacy classes of subgroups of a finite group. Use of the Burnside order leads to a simplification in the proof of key p...

By a quasi-permutation matrix we mean a square matrix over the complex field C with non-negative integral trace. Thus, every permutation matrix over C is a quasipermutation matrix.

Each homogeneous space of a quasigroup affords a representation of the BoseMesner algebra of the association scheme given by the action of the multiplication group. The homogeneous space is said to be faithful if the corresponding representation of the Bose-Mesner algebra is faithful. In the group case, this definition agrees with the usual concept of faithfulness for transitive permutation rep...
