In the first part, we focus on indecomposable involutive solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation whose permutation group forces them to be uniconnected. Indecomposable involutive solutions with a permutation group isomorphic to a dihedral…

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 present a different version of the well-known connection between Hopf--Galois structures and skew braces, building on a recent paper of A. Koch and P. J. Truman. We show that the known results that involve this connection easily carry…

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…

We prove that if $(B,+,\cdot)$ is a two-sided skew brace whose additive group is solvable, then every finite quotient of the multiplicative group $(B,\cdot)$ is solvable. In particular, our result recovers Nasybullov's theorem in the finite…

Biquandle brackets are a type of quantum enhancement of the biquandle counting invariant for oriented knots and links, defined by a set of skein relations with coefficients which are functions of biquandle colors at a crossing. In this…

We define combinatorial representations of finite skew braces and use this idea to produce a database of skew braces of small size. This database is then used to explore different concepts of the theory of skew braces such as ideals, series…

This work initiates a systematic study of the class of quasi bijective and quasi non-degenerate solutions to the set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equation. The motivation stems from the observation that solutions that arise from dual weak braces…

Letourmy and Vendramin have recently introduced a concept of isoclinism for skew braces. We show that for a skew brace the properties of being bi-skew, $\lambda$-homomorphic, and inner are invariant under isoclinism.

Braces were introduced by Rump as a promising tool in the study of the set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation. It has been recently proved that, given a left brace $B$, one can construct explicitly all the non-degenerate…

We study integrable deformations of two-dimensional non-linear sigma-models and present a new class of classical solutions to critical bi-Yang-Baxter models for general groups. For the simplest example, namely the SL(2,R) bi-Yang-Baxter…

Braces were introduced by Rump to study involutive non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation. A constructive method for producing all such finite solutions from a description of all finite left braces has been…

Any solution to the Yang-Baxter equation yields a family of representations of braid groups. Under certain conditions, identified by Turaev, the appropriately normalized trace of these representations yields a link invariant. Any…

In this paper we define a class of braces, that we call module braces or $R$-braces, which are braces for which the additive group has also a module structure over a ring $R$, and for which the values of the gamma functions are…

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 $G$.

As generalizations of skew left braces, weak left braces were introduced recently by Catino, Mazzotta, Miccoli and Stefanelli to study ceratin special degenerate set-theoretical solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation. In this note, as…

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,…

In this paper, we study the irreducible representations of skew braces of order \( pq \), which is equivalent to studying the representation theory of groups of order \( p^2q^2 \) arising from skew left braces, where \( p > q \) are primes.…

A new class of indecomposable, irretractable, involutive, non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions of the Yang--Baxter equation is constructed. This class complements the class of such solutions constructed in \cite{CO22} and together they…

In their paper entitled "Quantum Enhancements and Biquandle Brackets," Nelson, Orrison, and Rivera introduced biquandle brackets, which are customized skein invariants for biquandle-colored links. We prove herein that if a biquandle bracket…
