We study non-degenerate involutive set-theoretic solutions (X,r) of the Yang-Baxter equation, we call them simply solutions. We show that the structure group G(X,r) of a finite non-trivial solution (X,r) cannot be an Engel group. It is…
The Yang-Baxter equation (YBE) and the reflection equation (RE) both come from mathematical physics, and they can be defined in any monoidal category. For cartesian monoidal categories, we prove that every solution to the RE provides a…
Inspired by quantum information theory, we look for representations of the braid groups $B_n$ on $V^{\otimes (n+m-2)}$ for some fixed vector space $V$ such that each braid generator $\sigma_i, i=1,...,n-1,$ acts on $m$ consecutive tensor…

In this article, we give a few classes of solutions for the Yang-Baxter type matrix equation, $AXA=XAX$. We provide all solutions for the cases when $A$ is equivalent to a Jordan block or has precisely two Jordan blocks. We also have given…
Set-theoretic solutions of the Yang--Baxter equation form a meeting-ground of mathematical physics, algebra and combinatorics. Such a solution $(X,r)$ consists of a set $X$ and a bijective map $r:X\times X\to X\times X$ which satisfies the…

The most common geometric interpretation of the Yang-Baxter equation is by braids, knots and relevant Reidemeister moves. So far, cubes were used for connections with the third Reidemeister move only. We will show that there are…
