We study Yang-Baxter deformations of the flat space string that result in exactly solvable models, finding the Nappi-Witten model and its higher dimensional generalizations. We then consider the spectra of these models obtained by canonical…
We study a generalisation of the set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equation and investigate the connection between its solutions and matrix refactorisation problems. We refer to such solutions as scalene Yang-Baxter maps. Moreover, we construct…
We have found some new solutions of both rational and trigonometric types by rewriting Yang-Baxter equation as a triple product equation in a vector space of matrices.
In this note, we consider the problem of constructing knot invariants from Yang-Baxter operators associated to (unitary associative) algebra structures. We first compute the enhancements of these operators. Then, we conclude that Turaev's…
We show that Belavin's solutions of the quantum Yang--Baxter equation can be obtained by restricting an infinite $R$-matrix to suitable finite dimensional subspaces. This infinite $R$-matrix is a modified version of the Shibukawa--Ueno…
Given a rack Q and a ring A, one can construct a Yang-Baxter operator c_Q: V tensor V --> V tensor V on the free A-module V = AQ by setting c_Q(x tensor y) = y tensor x^y for all x,y in Q. In answer to a question initiated by D.N. Yetter…
We present solutions for the (constant and spectral-parameter) Yang-Baxter equations and Yang-Baxter systems arising from algebra structures and discuss about their symmetries. In the last section, we present some applications.
In our previous work: Adv. Math. 455 (2024), no. 109880, solubility of solutions was introduced as an extension of solubility of skew braces in the classification context of non-degenerate solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation. One of our…
It is shown how Yang-Baxter maps may be directly obtained from classical counterparts of the star-triangle relations and quantum Yang-Baxter equations. This is based on reinterpreting the latter equation and its solutions which are given in…
An explicit quantization is given of certain skew-symmetric solutions of the classical Yang-Baxter, yielding a family of $R$-matrices which generalize to higher dimensions the Jordanian $R$-matrices. Three different approaches to their…
We present particularly simple new solutions to the Yang--Baxter equation arising from two--dimensional cyclic representations of quantum $SU(2)$. They are readily interpreted as scattering matrices of relativistic objects, and the quantum…
It is shown that a Yang-Baxter system can be constructed from any entwining structure. It is also shown that, conversely, Yang-Baxter systems of certain type lead to entwining structures. Examples of Yang-Baxter systems associated to…
The spectral decomposition of regular sl_2-invariant R-matrices R(lambda) is studied by means of the method of reduction of the Yang-Baxter equation onto subspaces of a given spin. Restrictions on the possible structure of several highest…
In this article, we study unitary rational solutions of the associative Yang-Baxter equation with three spectral parameters. We explain how such solutions arise from the geometry of vector bundles on a cuspidal cubic curve. Moreover, we…
We construct solutions to the set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equation using braid group representations in free group automorphisms and their Fox differentials. The method resembles the extensions of groups and quandles.
Given a left brace $G$, a method to construct all the involutive, non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions $(Y,s)$ of the YBE, such that $\mathcal{G}(Y,s)\cong G$ is given. This method depends entirely on the brace structure of $G$.
Yang-Baxter string sigma-models provide a systematic way to deform coset geometries, such as $AdS_p \times S^p$, while retaining the $\sigma$-model integrability. It has been shown that the Yang-Baxter deformation in target space is simply…
A large class of integrable deformations of the Principal Chiral Model, known as the Yang-Baxter deformations, are governed by skew-symmetric R-matrices solving the (modified) classical Yang-Baxter equation. We carry out a systematic…
Starting from multidimensional consistency of non-commutative lattice modified Gel'fand-Dikii systems we present the corresponding solutions of the functional (set-theoretic) Yang-Baxter equation, which are non-commutative versions of the…
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.
