We extend our recent work on set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter or braid relations with new results about their automorphism groups, strong twisted unions of solutions and multipermutation solutions. We introduce and study graphs of…
To the Yang-Baxter equation an additional relation can be added. This is the reflection equation which appears in various places, with or without spectral parameter. For example, in factorizable scattering on a half-line, integrable lattice…
Any solution to the Yang-Baxter equation yields a family of representations of braid groups. Under certain conditions, identified by Turaev, the appropriately normalized trace of these representations yields a link invariant. Any…
The theory of the set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equation is reviewed from a purely algebraic point of view. We recall certain algebraic structures called shelves, racks and quandles. These objects satisfy a self-distributivity condition and…
Given a finite non-degenerate set-theoretic solution $(X,r)$ of the Yang-Baxter equation and a field $K$, the structure $K$-algebra of $(X,r)$ is $A=A(K,X,r)=K\langle X\mid xy=uv \mbox{ whenever }r(x,y)=(u,v)\rangle$. Note that…
Starting with any R-matrix with spectral parameter, obeying the Yang-Baxter equation and a unitarity condition, we construct the corresponding infinite dimensional quantum group U_{R} in term of a deformed oscillators algebra A_R. The…
We find the all solutions to the $sl_q(2)$-invariant multi-parametric Yang-Baxter equations (YBE) at $q=i$ defined on the cyclic (semi-cyclic, nilpotent) representations of the algebra. We are deriving the solutions in form of the linear…
Relative Rota-Baxter groups are generalisations of Rota-Baxter groups and introduced recently in the context of Lie groups. In this paper, we explore connections of relative Rota-Baxter groups with skew left braces, which are well-known to…
In this paper we discuss and characterize several set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation obtained using skew lattices, an algebraic structure that has not yet been related to the Yang-Baxter equation. Such solutions are…
Integrable deformations of type IIB superstring theory on $\mathrm{AdS}_5\times S^5$ have played an important role over the last years. The Yang-Baxter deformation is a systematic way of generating such integrable deformations. Since its…
We tackle the problem of enumerating set-theoretic solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation. This equation originates from statistical and quantum mechanics, but also has applications in knot theory, cryptography, quantum computation and group…
In this paper, we explore linear representations of skew left braces, which are known to provide bijective non-degenerate set-theoretical solutions to the Yang--Baxter equation that are not necessarily involutive. A skew left brace $(A,…
Let $p$ and $q$ be different prime numbers. Using recent results of Ced\'o and Okni\'nski, we describe isomorphism classes of indecomposable set-theoretic solutions to the Yang--Baxter equation of cardinality $pq$.
We study Yang-Baxter deformations of 4D Minkowski spacetime. The Yang-Baxter sigma model description was originally developed for principal chiral models based on a modified classical Yang-Baxter equation. It has been extended to coset…
Self-distributive (SD) structures form an important class of solutions to the Yang--Baxter equation, which underlie spectacular knot-theoretic applications of self-distributivity. It is less known that one go the other way round, and…
Braces are generalizations of radical rings, introduced by Rump to study involutive non-degenerate set-theoretical solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation (YBE). Skew braces were also recently introduced as a tool to study not necessarily…
The interplay between set-theoretic solutions of the Yang--Baxter equation of Mathematical Physics, skew braces, regular subgroups, and Hopf--Galois structures has spawned a considerable body of literature in recent years. In a recent…
Davydov--Yetter (DY) cohomology classifies infinitesimal deformations of the monoidal structure of tensor functors and tensor categories. In this paper we provide new tools for the computation of the DY cohomology for finite tensor…
We present a formula for an infinite number of universal quantum logic gates, which are $4$ by $4$ unitary solutions to the Yang-Baxter (Y-B) equation. We obtain this family from a certain representation of the cyclic group of order $n$. We…
We find all explicit involutive solutions $X \in \mathbb C^{n \times n}$ of the Yang-Baxter-like matrix equation $AXA=XAX$, where $A \in \mathbb C^{n \times n}$ is a given involutory matrix. The construction is algorithmic.
