We define the radical and weight of a skew left brace and provide some basic properties of these notions. In particular, we obtain a Wedderburn type decomposition for Artinian skew left braces. Furthermore, we prove analogues of a theorem…

Let $r:X^{2}\rightarrow X^{2}$ be a set-theoretic solution of the Yang-Baxter equation on a finite set $X$. It was proven by Gateva-Ivanova and Van den Bergh that if $r$ is non-degenerate and involutive then the algebra $K\langle x \in X…

We introduce a novel algebraic structure called di-skew brace by which we show that generalized digroups systematically yield bijective, non-degenerate solutions to the set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equation. We study the structural properties…

This paper examines the connections between (relative) Rota--Baxter groups, skew left braces, and enlargements of these structures on naturally associated semi-direct products. Given a skew left brace, we define a new skew left brace,…

We study the class of one-generator solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation, extending some recent results concerning the classes of involutive and multipermutation solutions. Moreover we show the precise relationship between indecomposable…

We produce novel non-involutive solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation coming from (skew) braces. These solutions are generalisations of the known ones coming from braces and skew braces, and surprisingly in the case of braces they are not…

We define isoclinism of skew braces and present several applications. We study some properties of skew braces that are invariant under isoclinism. For example, we prove that right nilpotency is an isoclinism invariant. This result has…

Skew braces are one of the main algebraic tools controlling the structure of a non-degenerate bijective set-theoretic solution of the Yang-Baxter equation. The aim of this paper is to study model-theoretically tame skew braces, with…

Skew braces play a central role in the theory of set-theoretic non-degenerate solutions of the Yang--Baxter equation, since their algebraic properties significantly affect the behaviour of the corresponding solutions (see for example…

We connect properties of set-theoretic solutions to the Yang--Baxter equation to properties of their permutation skew brace. In particular, a variation of the multipermutation level of a solution is presented and we show that it coincides…

Given a skew left brace $\mathfrak{B}$, we introduce the notion of an "opposite" skew left brace $\mathfrak{B}'$, which is closely related to the concept of the opposite of a group, and provide several applications. Skew left braces are…

Skew braces are algebraic structures related to the solutions of the set-theoretic quantum Yang-Baxter equation. We develop the central nilpotency theory for such algebraic structures in the sense of Freese-McKenzie \cite{comm} and we…

A skew brace, as introduced by L. Guarnieri and L. Vendramin, is a set with two group structures interacting in a particular way. When one of the group structures is abelian, one gets back the notion of brace as introduced by W. Rump. Skew…

The problem of constructing all the non-degenerate involutive set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation recently has been reduced to the problem of describing all the left braces. In particular, the classification of all finite…

Braces are generalizations of radical rings, introduced by Rump to study involutive non-degenerate set-theoretical solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation (YBE). Skew braces were also recently introduced as a tool to study not necessarily…

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…

We investigate a new algebraic structure which always gives rise to a set-theoretic solution of the Yang-Baxter equation. Specifically, a weak (left) brace is a non-empty set $S$ endowed with two binary operations $+$ and $\circ$ such that…

We show how one can use the skew braces constructed using abelian maps to generate families of skew bracoids as defined by Martin-Lyons and Truman. Under certain circumstances, these bracoids give right non-degenerate solutions to the…

The main aim of this paper is to provide set-theoretical solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation that are not necessarily bijective, among these new idempotent ones. In the specific, we draw on both to the classical theory of inverse…

Several aspects of relations between braces and non-degenerate involutive set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation are discussed and many consequences are derived. In particular, for each positive integer $n$ a finite square-free…
