For every prime number p and integer $n>1$, a simple, involutive, non-degenerate set-theoretic solution $(X,r$) of the Yang-Baxter equation of cardinality $|X| = p^n$ is constructed. Furthermore, for every non-(square-free) positive integer…

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…
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…
A finite non-degenerate set-theoretic solution $(X,r)$ of the Yang-Baxter equation gives rise to a structure skew brace $B(X,r)$ that is a $\lambda_f$-skew brace, i.e. every element has finitely many $\lambda$-images, and whose additive…
Involutive non-degenerate set theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation are considered, with a focus on finite solutions. A rich class of indecomposable and irretractable solutions is determined and necessary and sufficient conditions…

This paper aims to introduce a construction technique of set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation, called strong semilattice of solutions. This technique, inspired by the strong semilattice of semigroups, allows one to obtain new…
Using Bieberbach groups we study multipermutation involutive solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation. We use a linear representation of the structure group of an involutive solution to study the unique product property in such groups. An…

Let $(X,r_X)$ and $(Y,r_Y)$ be finite nondegenerate involutive set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation, and let $A_X = A(\textbf{k}, X, r_X)$ and $A_Y= A(\textbf{k}, Y, r_Y)$ be their quadratic Yang-Baxter algebras over a field…
We prove that the category of solutions of the set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equation of Frobenius-Separability (FS) type is equivalent to the category of pointed Kimura semigroups. As applications, all involutive, idempotent, nondegenerate,…
We develop a theory of extensions for involutive and nondegenerate solutions of the set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equation and use it to produce new families of solutions. As an application we construct an infinite family of counterexamples to…
We study the diagonal mappings in non-involutive set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation. We show that, for non-degenerate solutions, they are commuting bijections. This gives the positive answer to the question: ``Is every…
One of the results in our article, which appeared in Publ. Mat. 65 (2021), 499--528, is that the structure monoid $M(X,r)$ of a left non-degenerate solution $(X,r)$ of the Yang-Baxter Equation is a left semi-truss, in the sense of…
We present a complete characterization of all indecomposable non-degenerate, not necessarily involutive, solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation of multipermutation level~2. We show that every such solution is a homomorphic image of a…
