COMMENTS
Given a group G and an automorphism f of G define the binary operation * on G by x*y = f(xy^(-1))y. Then (G,*) is a quandle. We call this a Generalized Alexander quandle. If G is abelian then (G,*) is an Alexander quandle (see A193024). (G,*) is connected if the group generated by the right translations of (G,*) is transitive on G.
