"Nonconstant cohomologies" are introduced for solutions of set-theoretical four-simplex equation (FSE). While usual cohomologies lead to solutions of constant quantum FSE, our "nonconstant cohomologies" lead to solutions of nonconstant…
We introduce new algebraic structures associated with heptagon relations -- higher analogue of the well-known pentagon. The main points we deal with are: (i) polygon relations as algebraic imitations of Pachner moves, on the example of…
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 give a method to construct non symmetric solutions of a global tetrahedron equation from solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation. The solution in the HOMFLYPT case gives rise to the first combinatorial quantum 1-cocycle which represents a…
A cohomology theory is proposed for the recently discovered heptagon relation -- an algebraic imitation of a 5-dimensional Pachner move 4--3. In particular, `quadratic cohomology' is introduced, and it is shown that it is quite nontrivial,…
We study polygon equations and their connections to simplex equations, which generalize the pentagon and Yang--Baxter equations, respectively. First, we show that certain "commutative" pairs of solutions of (dual) polygon equations give…
The tetrahedron equation arises as a generalization of the famous Yang--Baxter equation to the 2+1-dimensional quantum field theory and the 3-dimensional statistical mechanics. Very little is still known about its solutions. Here a…
Tetrahedron equation is a three dimensional analogue of the Yang-Baxter equation. It allows a formulation in terms of the Coxeter group $A_3$. This short note includes miscellaneous remarks on the generalizations along $B_3, C_3, F_4$ and…
Assuming complex functions defined on complex curves satisfy recursion relations with respect to number of parameters, we express the corresponding cohomology theory via generalizations of holomorphic connections. In examples provided, the…
We quiver-interpret the classical simplicial theory - including the cosimplex category $\Delta$, Dold-Kan correspondence, and Hochschild homology - as a certain Q-homotopy theory of type $A$. For the cyclic and cubical theories, we proceed…
Biracks and biquandles, which are useful for studying the knot theory, are special families of solutions of the set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equation. A homology theory for the set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equation was developed by Carter,…
This chapter sets out preliminaries for the duality theory in later chapters. An underlying idea is that local cohomology functors are higher derived functors of colocalizations (a.k.a.~coreflections). Predominantly well-known facts about…
Hexagon relations are combinatorial or algebraic realizations of four-dimensional Pachner moves. We introduce some simple set-theoretic hexagon relations and then `quantize' them using what we call `polynomial hexagon cohomologies'. Based…
The tetrahedron equation in a special substitution is reduced to a pair of pentagon and one ten-term equations. Various examples of solutions are found. $O$-doubles of Novikov, which generalize the Heisenberg double of a Hopf algebra,…
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…
A homology and cohomology theory for topological quandles are introduced. The relation between these (co)homology groups and quandle (co)homology groups are studied. The 1 - topological quandle cocycles are used to compute state sum…
W. Rump showed that there exists a one-to-one correspondence between involutive right non-degenerate solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation and Rump right quasigroups. J. S. Carter, M. Elhamdadi, and M. Saito, meanwhile, introduced a…
We introduce the notion of quasi-triviality of quandles and define homology of quasi-trivial quandles. Quandle cocycle invariants are invariant under link-homotopy if they are associated with 2-cocycles of quasi-trivial quandles. We thus…
The paper is devoted to an approach to the bounded cohomology theory based on the theories of simplicial sets and Postnikov systems. In particular, the main results of the bounded cohomology theory of topological spaces are extended to…
Some idea, which leads to a non-trivial solution of the quantum four-simplex equation, is exposed in this paper. We call this idea "pentagonal algebra". Few examples of the realisation of this idea are given here, and thus few examples of…
