Abstract
We extend the rack algebra ℤ[X] defined by Andruskiewitsch and Graña to the case of biracks, enabling a notion of birack modules. We use these birack modules to define an enhancement of the birack counting invariant generalizing the birack module counting invariant in [A. Haas, G. Heckel, S. Nelson, J. Yuen and Q. Zhang, Rack module enhancements of counting invariants, Osaka J. Math.49 (2012) 471–488]. We provide examples demonstrating that the enhanced invariant is not determined by the Jones or Alexander polynomials and is stronger than the unenhanced birack counting invariant.
