Virtual Links with Finite Medial Bikei

This paper begins with a basic overview of the key concepts of classical and virtual knot theory. After introductions to concepts such as knot diagrams, Reidemeister moves, and virtual links, the paper discusses the bikei algebraic structure and the fundamental bikei. The paper describes an algorith...
