The Yang-Baxter relation and gauge invariance

Abstract

Starting from a quantum dilogarithm over a Pontryagin self-dual LCA group AA, we construct an operator solution of the Yang-Baxter equation generalizing the solution of the Faddeev-Volkov model. Based on a specific choice of a subgroup BAB\subset A and by using the Weil transformation, we also give a new non-operator interpretation of the Yang-Baxter relation. That allows us to construct a lattice QFT-model of IRF-type with gauge invariance under independent BB-translations of local `spin' variables.
