In this paper, we discuss the (co)homology theory of biquandles, derived biquandle cocycle invariants for oriented surface-links using broken surface diagrams and how to compute the biquandle cocycle invariants from marked graph diagrams. We also develop the shadow (co)homology theory of biquandles and construct the shadow biquandle cocycle invariants for oriented surface-links.

Carrell defined the fundamental biquandle of an oriented surface-link by a presentation obtained from its broken surface diagram, which is an invariant up to isomorphism of the fundamental biquandle. Ashihara gave a method to calculate the fundamental biquandle of an oriented surface-link from its marked graph diagram (ch-diagram). In this paper, we discuss the fundamental Alexander biquandles of oriented surface-links via marked graph diagrams, derived computable invariants and their applications to detect non-invertible oriented surface-links.

A marked graph diagram is a link diagram possibly with marked 4-valent vertices. S. J. Lomonaco, Jr. and K. Yoshikawa introduced a method of representing surface-links by marked graph diagrams. Specially, K. Yoshikawa suggested local moves on marked graph diagrams, nowadays called Yoshikawa moves. It is now known that two marked graph diagrams representing equivalent surface-links are related by a finite sequence of these Yoshikawa moves. In this paper, we provide some generating sets of Yoshikawa moves on marked graph diagrams representing unoriented surface-links, and also oriented surface-links. We also discuss independence of certain Yoshikawa moves from the other moves.

Quandle coloring quivers are directed graph-valued invariants of oriented knots and links, defined using a choice of finite quandle [Formula: see text] and set [Formula: see text] of endomorphisms. From a quandle coloring quiver, a polynomial knot invariant known as the in-degree quiver polynomial is defined. We consider quandle coloring quiver invariants for oriented surface-links, represented by marked graph diagrams. We provide example computations for all oriented surface-links with ch-index up to 10 for choices of quandles and endomorphisms.

In 1987, Przytyski and Traczyk introduced an algebraic structure, called a Conway algebra, and constructed an invariant of oriented links, which is a generalization of the HOMFLY-PT polynomial invariant. In 2018, Kim generalized a Conway algebra, which is an algebraic structure with two skein relations, which is called a generalized Conway algebra. In 2017, Joung, Kamada, Kawauchi and Lee constructed a polynomial invariant of oriented surface-links by using marked graph diagrams. In this paper, we will introduce generalizations [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] of a Conway algebra and a generalized Conway algebra, which are called a marked Conway algebra and a generalized marked Conway algebra, respectively. We will construct invariants valued in [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] for oriented marked graphs and oriented surface-links by applying binary operations to classical crossings and marked vertices via marked graph diagrams. The polynomial invariant of oriented surface-links is obtained from the invariant valued in the marked Conway algebra with additional conditions.

Abstract Kadeishvili's proof of theminimality theorem [T. Kadeishvili, On the homology theory of fiber spaces, Russ. Math. Surv. 35:3 (1980), 231–238] induces an algorithm for the inductive computation of an A ∞-algebra structure on the homology of a dg-algebra. In this paper, we prove that for one class of dg-algebras, the resulting computation will generate a complete A ∞-algebra structure after a finite amount of computational work.

Abstract In this paper, we introduce the category and the homotopy category of edge-colored digraphs and construct the functorial homology theory on the foundation of the path homology theory provided by Grigoryan, Muranov, and Shing-Tung Yau. We give the construction of the path homology theory for edge-colored graphs that follows immediately from the consideration of natural functor from the category of graphs to the subcategory of symmetrical digraphs. We describe the natural filtration of path homology groups of any digraph equipped with edge coloring, provide the definition of the corresponding spectral sequence, and obtain commutative diagrams and braids of exact sequences.
