The Yang-Baxter $\sigma$-model is an integrable deformation of the principal chiral model on a Lie group $G$. The deformation breaks the $G \times G$ symmetry to $U(1)^{\textrm{rank}(G)} \times G$. It is known that there exist non-local…
The homogeneous Yang-Baxter deformation is part of a larger web of integrable deformations and dualities that recently have been studied with motivations in integrable $\sigma$-models, solution-generating techniques in supergravity and…
The physical interpretation of the main notions of the quantum group theory (coproduct, representations and corepresentations, action and coaction) is discussed using the simplest examples of $q$-deformed objects (quantum group…
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…
We introduce a notion of I-factorial quantum torsor, which consists of an integrable ergodic action of a locally compact quantum group on a type I-factor such that also the crossed product is a type I-factor. We show that any such…
An elliptic deformation of $\widehat{sl}_2$ is proposed. Our presentation of the algebra is based on the relation $RLL=LLR^*$, where $R$ and $R^*$ are eight-vertex $R$-matrices with the elliptic moduli chosen differently. In the…
The general method of Reshetikhin and Turaev is followed to develop topological invariants of closed, connected, orientable 3-manifolds from a new class of algebras called pseudo-modular Hopf algebras. Pseudo-modular Hopf algebras are a…
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…
In this paper we study two deformation procedures for quantum groups: deformations by twists, that we call "comultiplication twisting", as they modify the coalgebra structure, while keeping the algebra one -- and deformations by 2-cocycle,…
Skew braces have recently attracted attention as a method to study set-theoretical solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation. Here, we present a new approach to these solutions by studying Hopf algebras in the category, $\mathrm{SupLat}$, of…
We generalize Nichita, Popovici and Tanasa solutions of the Braid equation to quasi-Yang-Baxter equation. We define quasi-braided Lie algebras in an additive monoidal category as a natural generalization of Majid's braided Lie algebra…
A class of non-associative and non-coassociative generalizations of cobraided bialgebras, called cobraided Hom-bialgebras, is introduced. The non-(co)associativity in a cobraided Hom-bialgebra is controlled by a twisting map. Several…
Using the language of h-Hopf algebroids which was introduced by Etingof and Varchenko, we construct a dynamical quantum group, F_ell(GL(n)), from the elliptic solution of the quantum dynamical Yang-Baxter equation with spectral parameter…
We show how general principles of symmetry in quantum mechanics lead to twisted notions of a group representation. This framework generalizes both the classical 3-fold way of real/complex/quaternionic representations as well as a…
In this paper, we introduce non-standard deformations of (1+2)- and (2+1)-superspaces via a contraction using standard deformations of them. This deformed superspaces denoted by ${\mathbb A}_h^{1|2}$ and ${\mathbb A}_{h'}^{2|1}$,…
Braided algebras are associative algebras endowed with a Yang-Baxter operator that satisfies certain compatibility conditions involving the multiplication. Along with Hochschild cohomology of algebras, there is also a notion of Yang-Baxter…
We consider finite-dimensional Hopf algebras $u$ which admit a smooth deformation $U\to u$ by a Noetherian Hopf algebra $U$ of finite global dimension. Examples of such Hopf algebras include small quantum groups over the complex numbers,…
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…
We give the center of the elliptic quantum group in general case. Based on the Dynamic Yang-Baxter Relation and the fusion method, we prove that the center commute with all generators of the elliptic quantum group. Then for a kind of…
We introduce non-degenerate solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation in the setting of symmetric monoidal categories. Our theory includes non-degenerate set-theoretical solutions as basic examples. However, infinite families of non-degenerate…
