We study involutive non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions (X,r) of the Yang-Baxter equation on a finite set X. The emphasis is on the case where (X,r) is indecomposable, so the associated permutation group acts transitively on X. One of…
A new method to construct involutive non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions $(X^n,r^{(n)})$ of the Yang-Baxter equation from an initial solution $(X,r)$ is given. Furthermore, the permutation group $\mathcal{G}(X^n,r^{(n)})$ associated to…
We prove that a finite non-degenerate involutive set-theoretic solution (X,r) of the Yang-Baxter equation is a multipermutation solution if and only if its structure group G(X,r) admits a left ordering or equivalently it is poly-(infinite…
This paper aims to deepen the theory of bijective non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation, not necessarily involutive, by means of q-cycle sets. We entirely focus on the finite indecomposable ones among which we…
Indecomposable involutive non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions $(X,r)$ of the Yang-Baxter equation of cardinality $p_1\cdots p_n$, for different prime numbers $p_1,\ldots, p_n$, are studied. It is proved that they are multipermutation…

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…
We study non-degenerate involutive set-theoretic solutions (X,r) of the Yang-Baxter equation, we call them simply solutions. We show that the structure group G(X,r) of a finite non-trivial solution (X,r) cannot be an Engel group. It is…

We involve simultaneously the theory of matched pairs of groups and the theory of braces to study set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation (YBE). We show the intimate relation between the notions of a symmetric group (a braided…
Set-theoretic solutions of the Yang--Baxter equation form a meeting-ground of mathematical physics, algebra and combinatorics. Such a solution consists of a set $X$ and a function r:X x X --> X x X which satisfies the braid relation. We…
Most of the set-theoretical solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation studied in the past years were non-degenerate multipermutation solutions. For degenerate solutions, a correct definition of multipermutation solutions has not been…
This paper explores the structure groups $G_{(X,r)}$ of finite non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions $(X,r)$ to the Yang-Baxter equation. Namely, we construct a finite quotient $\overline{G}_{(X,r)}$ of $G_{(X,r)}$, generalizing the…
