Hello,
I would really appreciate any info on how to create in GAP finite rings of
the form
Z[t,t^-1]/(p(x)), where p(x) is some polynomial (let's say with leading and
last coeffs equal to 1). Such structures are known as Alexander quandles
(with operation x*y=tx+(1-t)y) and are of importance in knot theory.
Thank you
Maciej Niebrzydowski
