We find new solutions to the Yang-Baxter equations with the $R$-matrices possessing $sl_q(2)$ symmetry at roots of unity, using indecomposable representations. The corresponding quantum one-dimensional chain models, which can be treated as…
A generalization of the Yang-Baxter equation is proposed. It enables to construct integrable two-dimensional lattice models with commuting two-layer transfer matrices, while single-layer ones are not necessarily commutative. Explicit…
We present the general diagonal and, in some cases, non-diagonal solutions of the boundary Yang-Baxter equation for a number of related interaction-round-a-face models, including the standard and dilute A_L, D_L and E_{6,7,8} models.
We use boundary quantum group symmetry to obtain recursion formulas which determine nondiagonal solutions of the boundary Yang-Baxter equation (reflection equation) of the XXZ type for any spin j.
We investigate certain bases of Hecke algebras defined by means of the Yang-Baxter equation, which we call Yang-Baxter bases. These bases are essentially self-adjoint with respect to a canonical bilinear form. In the case of the degenerate…
The (G, \theta)-Lie algebras are structures which unify the Lie algebras and Lie superalgebras. We use them to produce solutions for the quantum Yang-Baxter equation. The constant and the spectral-parameter Yang-Baxter equations and…
An $n\times n$ matrix $M=[m_{ij}]$ with $m_{ij}\in U_n=\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ will be called a cycle matrix if $(U_n,\cdot)$ is a cycle set, where $i\cdot j=m_{ij}$. We study these matrices in this article. Using these matrices, we give some…
We construct $2^n+1$ solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation associated with the quantum affine algebras $U_q\big(A^{(1)}_{n-1}\big)$, $U_q\big(A^{(2)}_{2n}\big)$, $U_q\big(C^{(1)}_n\big)$ and $U_q\big(D^{(2)}_{n+1}\big)$. They act on the…
We study solutions of the parametric set-theoretic reflection equation from an algebraic perspective by employing recently derived generalizations of the familiar shelves and racks, called parametric (p)-shelves and racks. Generic…
Given an arbitrary choice of two sets of nonzero Boltzmann weights for $n$-color lattice models, we provide explicit algebraic conditions on these Boltzmann weights which guarantee a solution (i.e., a third set of weights) to the…
Recently V.Drinfeld formulated a number of problems in quantum group theory. In particular, he suggested to consider ``set-theoretical'' solutions of the quantum Yang-Baxter equation, i.e. solutions given by a permutation $R$ of the set…
We find new solutions to the Yang--Baxter equation in terms of the intertwiner matrix for semi-cyclic representations of the quantum group $U_q(s\ell(2))$ with $q= e^{2\pi i/N}$. These intertwiners serve to define the Boltzmann weights of a…
In this paper we present representations of the recently introduced dilute Birman-Wenzl-Murakami algebra. These representations, labelled by the level-$l$ B$^{(1)}_n$, C$^{(1)}_n$ and D$^{(1)}_n$ affine Lie algebras, are Baxterized to yield…
