We study indecomposable involutive set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation with cyclic permutation groups (cocyclic solutions). In particular, we show that there is no one-to-one correspondence between indecomposable cocyclic…
Motivated by the study of the operator forms of the constant classical Yang-Baxter equation given by Semonov-Tian-Shansky, Kupershmidt and the others, we try to construct the rational solutions of the classical Yang-Baxter equation with…
We establish a one-to-one correspondence between structure groups of non-degenerate, involutive and braided "set-theoretical" solutions of the quantum Yang-Baxter equation and Garside groups with a certain presentation. Moreover, we show…
We present an explicit expression for the topological invariants associated to $SU(2)$ monopoles in the fundamental representation on spin four-manifolds. The computation of these invariants is based on the analysis of their corresponding…
The (G, \theta)-Lie algebras are structures which unify the Lie algebras and Lie superalgebras. We use them to produce solutions for the quantum Yang-Baxter equation. The constant and the spectral-parameter Yang-Baxter equations and…
A general functional definition of the infinite dimensional quantum R-matrix satisfying the Yang-Baxter equation is given. A procedure for extracting a finite dimensional R-matrix from the general definition is demonstrated for the…
We present a simple but explicit example of a recent development which connects quantum integrable models with Schubert calculus: there is a purely geometric construction of solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation and their associated…
Quantum groups were invented largely to provide solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation and hence solvable models in 2-dimensional statistical mechanics and one-dimensional quantum mechanics. They have been hugely successful. But not all…
This work deals with an algebro-geometric theory of solutions of the classical Yang-Baxter equation based on torsion free coherent sheaves of Lie algebras on Weierstrass cubic curves.
In this paper, we initiate the study of the interplay between $k$-graphs and the Yang-Baxter equation. For this, we provide two very different perspectives. One one hand, we show that the set of all set-theoretic solutions of the…
This paper contains a systematic and elementary introduction to a new area of the theory of quantum groups -- the theory of the classical and quantum dynamical Yang-Baxter equations. It arose from a minicourse given by the first author at…
Motivated by the proof of Rump of a conjecture of Gateva-Ivanova on the decomposability of square-free solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation, we present several other decomposability theorems based on the cycle structure of a certain…
New solutions of the quantum Yang-Baxter equation, depending in general on three arbitrary parameters, are written down. They are based on the root of unity representations of the quantum orthosymplectic superalgebra \\U, which were found…
A method of computing a basis for the second Yang-Baxter cohomology of a finite biquandle with coefficients in Q and Z_p from a matrix presentation of the finite biquandle is described. We also describe a method for computing the…
In this paper a class of new quantum groups is presented: deformed Yangians. They arise from rational solutions of the classical Yang-Baxter equation of the form $c_2 /u + const$ . The universal quantum $R$-matrix for a deformed Yangian is…
We derive an inductive, combinatorial definition of a polynomial-valued regular isotopy invariant of links and tangled graphs. We show that the invariant equals the Reshetikhin-Turaev invariant corresponding to the exceptional simple Lie…
We show that the solutions of the Yang--Baxter equation invariant under the action of the Yangian $Y(sl_2)$ lead to inhomogenous vertex models. Starting from a four dimensional representation of $Y(sl_2)$ we obtain an integrable family of…
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…
We investigate different Hopf algebras associated to Yang's solution of quantum Yang-Baxter equation. It is shown that for the precise definition of the algebra one needs the commutation relations for the deformed algebra of formal currents…
We present a construction of all finite indecomposable involutive solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation of multipermutational level at most 2 with abelian permutation group. As a consequence, we obtain a formula for the number of such…
