We present a systematic procedure to obtain singular solutions of the constant quantum Yang-Baxter equation in arbitrary dimension. This approach, inspired in the Lie (super)algebra structure, is explicitly applied to the particular case of…
It is fundamental to view unitary braiding operators describing topological entanglements as universal quantum gates for quantum computation. This paper derives a unitary solution of the Quantum Yang--Baxter equation via Yang--Baxterization…
In this article, we introduce a method to extend involutive nondegenerate set-theoretic solutions to the Yang--Baxter equation by means of equivariant mappings to graded modules, thus leading to the notion of a twisted extension.…
We construct $R$-matrices (with a multidimensional spectral parameter) that include additive as well as non-additive parameters. They satisfy the colored Yang-Baxter equation. The solutions depend on a set of commuting operators. They…
We give a new type of Schur-Weyl duality for the representations of a family of quantum subgroups and their centralizer algebra. We define and classify singly-generated, Yang-Baxter relation planar algebras. We present the skein theoretic…
We present Yang-Baxter maps associated to elliptic curves. They are related to discrete versions of the Krichever-Novikov and the Landau-Lifshits equations. A lifting of scalar integrable quad-graph equations to two-field equations is also…

Based on different views on the Jones polynomial we review representation theoretic categorified link and tangle invariants. We unify them in a common combinatorial framework and connect them via the theory of Soergel bimodules. The…
We show that the link invariants derived from 3-dimensional quantum hyperbolic geometry can be defined by means of planar state sums based on link diagrams and a new family of enhanced Yang-Baxteroperators (YBO) that we compute explicitly.…
We introduce and study strongly invertible Legendrian links in the standard contact three-dimensional space. We establish the equivariant analogs of basic results separately well-known for strongly invertible and Legendrian links, i.e. the…
We define new notions of groups of virtual and welded knots (or links) and we study their relations with other invariants, in particular the Kauffman group of a virtual knot.
The quantum integrable systems associated with the quantum loop algebras $\mathrm U_q(\mathcal L(\mathfrak{sl}_{\, l + 1}))$ are considered. The factorized form of the transfer operators related to the infinite dimensional evaluation…
The Yang-Baxter Equation (YBE) plays a crucial role for studying integrable many-body quantum systems. Many known YBE solutions provide various examples ranging from quantum spin chains to superconducting systems. Models of solvable…
In this letter we construct ${\rm GL}_{NM}$-valued dynamical $R$-matrix by means of unitary skew-symmetric solution of the associative Yang-Baxter equation in the fundamental representation of ${\rm GL}_{N}$. In $N=1$ case the obtained…
A biquandle is a solution to the set-theoretical Yang-Baxter equation, which yields invariants for virtual knots such as the coloring number and the state-sum invariant. A virtual biquandle enriches the structure of a biquandle by…
Let $T$ be a finite group. To a representation $\pi$ of $T$ and an involutive solution of the Yang-Baxter equation (an $R$-matrix) verifying the "extended" reflection equation, we associate a character and a representation of the wreath…
Inspired by earlier works on representations of the Temperley-Lieb algebra we introduce a novel family of representations of the algebra. This may be seen as a generalization of the so called asymmetric twin representation. The underlying…
Covariant classical particle dynamics is described, and the associated covariant relativistic particle quantum mechanics is derived. The invariant symmetric bracket is defined on the space of quantum amplitudes, and its relation to a…
We investigate the Yang-Baxter algebra for $\mathrm{U}(1)$ invariant three-state vertex models whose Boltzmann weights configurations break explicitly the parity-time reversal symmetry. We uncover two families of regular Lax operators with…
