The problem of constructing all the non-degenerate involutive set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation recently has been reduced to the problem of describing all the left braces. In particular, the classification of all finite…
We investigate a new algebraic structure which always gives rise to a set-theoretic solution of the Yang-Baxter equation. Specifically, a weak (left) brace is a non-empty set $S$ endowed with two binary operations $+$ and $\circ$ such that…
Braided tensor products have been introduced by the author as a systematic way of making two quantum-group-covariant systems interact in a covariant way, and used in the theory of braided groups. Here we study infinite braided tensor…
Blatter-Montgomery duality theorem is generalized into braided tensor categories. It is shown that $Hom(V,W)$ is a braided Yetter-Drinfeld module for any two braided Yetter-Drinfeld modules $V$ and $W$.
The class of standard braided vector spaces, introduced by Andruskiewitsch and the author in \texttt{arXiv:math/0703924v2} to understand the proof of a theorem of Heckenberger \cite{H2}, is slightly more general than the class of braided…
Formulating quantum integrability for nonultralocal models (NM) parallel to the familiar approach of inverse scattering method is a long standing problem. After reviewing our result regarding algebraic structures of ultralocal models, we…
We describe a new technique to obtain representations of the braid group B_n from the R-matrix of a quantum deformed algebra of the one dimensional harmonic oscillator. We consider the action of the R-matrix not on the tensor product of…
We study tetrahedron maps, which are set-theoretical solutions to the Zamolodchikov tetrahedron equation, and Yang-Baxter maps, which are set-theoretical solutions to the quantum Yang-Baxter equation. In particular, we clarify the structure…
The goal of this paper is to generalize the theory of triangularizing matrices to linear transformations of an arbitrary vector space, without placing any restrictions on the dimension of the space or on the base field. We define a…
Given a vector-space $~V~$ which is the tensor product of vector-spaces $A$ and $B$, we reconstruct $A$ and $B$ from the family of simple tensors $a{\otimes}b$ within $V$. In an application to quantum mechanics, one would be reconstructing…
In this paper we introduce a procedure that, given a solution to the Yang-Baxter equation as input, produces a stochastic (or Markovian) solution to (a possibly dynamical version of) the Yang-Baxter equation. We then apply this…
The construction of quantum knot invariants from solutions of the Yang--Baxter equation (R-matrices) is reviewed with the emphasis on a class of R-matrices admitting an interpretation in intrinsically three-dimensional terms.
In this paper we study unitary solutions of the associative Yang--Baxter equation (AYBE) with spectral parameters. We show that to each point $\tau$ from the upper half-plane and an invertible $n \times n$ matrix $B$ with complex…
For a set theoretical solution of the Yang-Baxter equation $(X,\sigma)$, we define a d.g. bialgebra $B=B(X,\sigma)$, containing the semigroup algebra $A=k\{X\}/\langle xy=zt : \sigma(x,y)=(z,t)\rangle$, such that $k\otimes_A B\otimes_Ak$…
We analyze tensors in the tensor product of three m-dimensional vector spaces satisfying Strassen's equations for border rank m. Results include: two purely geometric characterizations of the Coppersmith-Winograd tensor, a reduction to the…
Davydov-Yetter cohomology $H_{\mathrm{DY}}^{\bullet}(F)$ is associated to a monoidal functor $F: \mathcal{C} \to \mathcal{D}$ between $\Bbbk$-linear monoidal categories where $\Bbbk$ is a field, and its second degree classifies the…
The aim of this paper is to define and study Yetter-Drinfeld modules over Hom-bialgebras, a generalized version of bialgebras obtained by modifying the algebra and coalgebra structures by a homomorphism. Yetter-Drinfeld modules over a…
A connection between the Yang-Baxter relation for maps and the multi-dimensional consistency property of integrable equations on quad-graphs is investigated. The approach is based on the symmetry analysis of the corresponding equations. It…
We study 2-reductive non-involutive non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation. We give a combinatorial construction of any such solution of any (even infinite) size. We also prove that solutions associated to a skew…
We show that the two coproducts of a Markov $L$-coalgebra yield at least two solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation and thus at least two representations of braid groups.
