We examine classes of quantum algebras emerging from involutive, non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation and their q-analogues. After providing some universal results on quasi-bialgebras and admissible Drinfeld…

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…

We suggest a cohomological framework to describe groups of $I$-type and involutive Yang-Baxter groups. These groups are key in the study of involutive non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions of the quantum Yang-Baxter equation. Our main tool…

The concept of Rota-Baxter family algebra is a generalization of Rota-Baxter algebra. It appears naturally in the algebraic aspects of renormalizations in quantum field theory. Rota-Baxter family algebras are closely related to dendriform…

This article investigates Dehornoy's monomial representations for structure groups and Coxeter-like groups associated with a set-theoretic solution to the Yang--Baxter equation. Using the brace structure of these groups and the language of…

In 2004, Carter, Elhamdadi and Saito defined a homology theory for set-theoretic Yang-Baxter operators(we will call it the "algebraic" version in this article). In 2012, Przytycki defined another homology theory for pre-Yang-Baxter…

We present a systematic procedure to obtain singular solutions of the constant quantum Yang-Baxter equation in arbitrary dimension. This approach, inspired in the Lie (super)algebra structure, is explicitly applied to the particular case of…

It is known that Yang-Baxter sigma models provide a systematic way to study integrable deformations of both principal chiral models and symmetric coset sigma models. In the original proposal and its subsequent development, the deformations…

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…

Relative Rota-Baxter groups are generalisations of Rota-Baxter groups and recently shown to be intimately related to skew left braces, which are well-known to yield bijective non-degenerate solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation. In this…

The rules for Yang-Baxter (YB) deformation for a generic Green-Schwarz string sigma model has been obtained recently. We show that the deformation can be described through the action of a coordinate dependent $O(d,d)$ matrix on the target…

This paper contains a systematic and elementary introduction to a new area of the theory of quantum groups -- the theory of the classical and quantum dynamical Yang-Baxter equations. It arose from a minicourse given by the first author at…

We study indecomposable involutive set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation with cyclic permutation groups (cocyclic solutions). In particular, we show that there is no one-to-one correspondence between indecomposable cocyclic…

We introduce skein theoretic techniques to compute the Yang-Baxter (YB) homology and cohomology groups of the R-matrix corresponding to the Jones polynomial. More specifically, we show that the YB operator $R$ for Jones, normalized for…

A cohomology theory of weighted Rota-Baxter $3$-Lie algebras is introduced. Formal deformations, abelian extensions, skeletal weighted Rota-Baxter $3$-Lie 2-algebras and crossed modules of weighted Rota-Baxter 3-Lie algebras are interpreted…

A homology theory is developed for set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equations, and knot invariants are constructed by generalized colorings by biquandles and Yang-Baxter cocycles.

We construct an analogue of Yang--Baxter deformations defined by a single Killing vector, that is a solution generating transformation in Einstein--Maxwell dilaton theory. We show that these are nothing but a coordinate transformation in a…

Braces and linear cycle sets are algebraic structures playing a major role in the classification of involutive set-theoretic solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation. This paper introduces two versions of their (co)homology theories. These…

We define integrability preserving Yang-Baxter deformations of symmetric space sigma models with non-semi-simple symmetry group, in particular the flat space string, using only the essential structures of a symmetric space sigma model. For…

In this work we define a deformation theory for the Coupled K\"ahler-Yang-Mills equations in arXiv:1102.0991, generalizing work of Sz\'ekelyhidi on constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics. We use the theory to find new solutions of the…
