Starting from known solutions of the functional Yang-Baxter equations, we exhibit Miura type of transformations leading to various known integrable quad equations. We then construct, from the same list of Yang-Baxter maps, a series of…

We present three equivalence classes of rational non-invertible multidimensional compatible maps. These maps turns out to be idempotent and by construction they admit birational partial inverses (companion maps) which are Yang-Baxter maps.…
Computational methods are an important tool for solving the Yang-Baxter equations(in small dimensions), for classifying (unifying) structures, and for solving related problems. This paper is an account of some of the latest developments on…
Given a proper, rational map of balls, D'Angelo and Xiao introduced five natural groups encoding properties of the map. We study these groups using a recently discovered normal form for rational maps of balls. Using this normal form, we…

For a rational function of several variables with nonnegative imaginary part on the upper poly-half-plane, the matrix representations are obtained.
Many questions about triangles and quadrilaterals with rational sides, diagonals and areas can be reduced to solving certain Diophantine equations. We look at a number of such questions including the question of approximating arbitrary…
We construct novel solutions to the set-theoretical entwining Yang-Baxter equation. These solutions are birational maps involving non-commutative dynamical variables which are elements of the Grassmann algebra of order $n$. The maps arise…

We survey the matrix product solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation obtained recently from the tetrahedron equation. They form a family of quantum $R$ matrices of generalized quantum groups interpolating the symmetric tensor representations…
Many well-known and well-studied four by four universal quantum logic gates in the literature are of a specific form, the so called eight-vertex form \eqref{8vertexform} \cite{kaufman etal 05-1,kaufman etal 05-2}, or {\it similar} to it. We…
Jordan as well as related triple systems have been used to find several solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation, which are of rational as well as trigonometric type.
We give a light-hearted look at the topic in the title. Most solutions are in semi-boring parametric families, but some are sporadic and come from Thue equations. One amusing example is m = 2, x = (4/5)^128, y = (4/5)^125.
We study polygon equations and their connections to simplex equations, which generalize the pentagon and Yang--Baxter equations, respectively. First, we show that certain "commutative" pairs of solutions of (dual) polygon equations give…
A bijective map $r: X^2 \longrightarrow X^2$, where $X = \{x_1, ..., x_n \}$ is a finite set, is called a \emph{set-theoretic solution of the Yang-Baxter equation} (YBE) if the braid relation $r_{12}r_{23}r_{12} = r_{23}r_{12}r_{23}$ holds…
It is shown that for a certain class of Yang-Baxter maps (or set-theoretical solutions to the quantum Yang-Baxter equation) the Lax representation can be derived straight from the map itself. A similar phenomenon for 3D consistent equations…
