New set-theoretical solutions to the Yang-Baxter Relation are constructed. These solutions arise from the decompositions "in different order" of matrix polynomials and $\theta$-functions. We also construct a "local action of the symmetric…
Let $p$ and $q$ be different prime numbers. Using recent results of Ced\'o and Okni\'nski, we describe isomorphism classes of indecomposable set-theoretic solutions to the Yang--Baxter equation of cardinality $pq$.
As generalizations of inverse semibraces introduced by Catino, Mazzotta and Stefanelli, Miccoli has introduced regular $\star$-semibraces under the name of involution semibraces and given a sufficient condition under which the associated…
We suggest a cohomological framework to describe groups of $I$-type and involutive Yang-Baxter groups. These groups are key in the study of involutive non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions of the quantum Yang-Baxter equation. Our main tool…
This talk is inspired by two previous ICM talks, by V.Drinfeld (1986) and G.Felder (1994). Namely, one of the main ideas of Drinfeld's talk is that the quantum Yang-Baxter equation (QYBE), which is an important equation arising in quantum…
A Lie group is called orthogonal if it carries a bi-invariant pseudo Riemannian metric. Oscillator Lie groups constitutes a subclass of the class of orthogonal Lie groups. In this paper, we determine the Lie bialgebra structures and the…

We present particularly simple new solutions to the Yang--Baxter equation arising from two--dimensional cyclic representations of quantum $SU(2)$. They are readily interpreted as scattering matrices of relativistic objects, and the quantum…
Biracks and biquandles, which are useful for studying the knot theory, are special families of solutions of the set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equation. A homology theory for the set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equation was developed by Carter,…
The Yang-Baxter and pentagon equations are two well-known equations of Mathematical Physic. If $S$ is a set, a map $s:S\times S\to S\times S$ is said to be a set theoretical solution of the Yang-Baxter equation if $$ s_{23}\, s_{13}\,…
The set-theoretical reflection equation and its solutions, the reflection maps, recently introduced by two of the authors, is presented in general and then applied in the context of quadrirational Yang-Baxter maps. We provide a method for…
We review recent results in the study of quantum groups in the super setting. In particular, we provide an overview of results about solutions of the Yang-Baxter equations in the super setting and begin to develop the super analog of the…
We show that the Yang-Baxter equations for two dimensional models admit as a group of symmetry the infinite discrete group $A_2^{(1)}$. The existence of this symmetry explains the presence of a spectral parameter in the solutions of the…
The quantum Yang-Baxter equation is a braiding condition on vector spaces which is of high relevance in several fields of mathematics, such as knot theory and quantum group theory. Their combinatorial counterpart are set-theoretic solutions…
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…
We study tetrahedron maps, which are set-theoretical solutions to the Zamolodchikov tetrahedron equation, and Yang-Baxter maps, which are set-theoretical solutions to the quantum Yang-Baxter equation. In particular, we clarify the structure…
We study finite set-theoretic solutions $(X,r)$ of the Yang-Baxter equation of square-free multipermutation type. We show that each such solution over $\C$ with multipermutation level two can be put in diagonal form with the associated…
Several years ago, it was proposed that the usual solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation associated to Lie groups can be deduced in a systematic way from four-dimensional gauge theory. In the present paper, we extend this picture, fill in…
Yang-Baxter bialgebras, as previously introduced by the authors, are shown to arise from a double crossproduct construction applied to the bialgebra R T T = T T R, E T = T E R, \Delta(T) = T \hat{\otimes} T, \Delta(E) = E \hat{\otimes} T +…
We use boundary quantum group symmetry to obtain recursion formulas which determine nondiagonal solutions of the boundary Yang-Baxter equation (reflection equation) of the XXZ type for any spin j.
