We extend our recent work on set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter or braid relations with new results about their automorphism groups, strong twisted unions of solutions and multipermutation solutions. We introduce and study graphs of…

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…

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.

Let $V$ be a braided vector space, that is, a vector space together with a solution $\hat{R}\in {\text{End}}(V\otimes V)$ of the Yang--Baxter equation. Denote $T(V):=\bigoplus_k V^{\otimes k}$. We associate to $\hat{R}$ a solution…
