Motivated by recent work on Hom-Lie algebras, a twisted version of the Yang-Baxter equation, called the Hom-Yang-Baxter equation (HYBE), was introduced by the author in an earlier paper. In this paper, several more classes of solutions of the HYBE are constructed. Some of these solutions of the HYBE are closely related to the quantum enveloping algebra of sl(2), the Jones-Conway polynomial, and Yetter-Drinfel'd modules. We also construct a new infinite sequence of solutions of the HYBE from a given one. Along the way, we compute all the Lie algebra endomorphisms on the (1+1)-Poincare algebra and sl(2).
We explicitly determine all Rota-Baxter operators (of weight zero) on $sl(2,C)$ under the Cartan-Weyl basis. For the skew-symmetric operators, we give the corresponding skew-symmetric solutions of the classical Yang-Baxter equation in $sl(2,C)$, confirming the related study by Semenov-Tian-Shansky. In general, these Rota-Baxter operators give a family of solutions of the classical Yang-Baxter equation in the 6-dimensional Lie algebra $sl(2,C) \ltimes_{{\rm ad}^{\ast}} sl(2,C)^{\ast}$. They also give rise to 3-dimensional pre-Lie algebras which in turn yield solutions of the classical Yang-Baxt…
The aim of this paper is to introduce the notion of a mock-Lie bialgebra which is equivalent to a Manin triple of mock-Lie algebras. The study of a special case called coboundary mock-Lie bialgebra leads to the introduction the mock-Lie Yang-Baxter equation on a mock-Lie algebra which is an analogue of the classical Yang-Baxter equation on a Lie algebra. Note that a skew-symmetric solution of mock-Lie Yang-Baxter equation gives a mock-Lie bialgebra. Finally, the notation of $\mathcal O$-operators are studied to construct skew-symmetric solution of mock-Lie Yang-Baxter equation.
Motivated by recent work on Hom-Lie algebras and the Hom-Yang-Baxter equation, we introduce a twisted generalization of the classical Yang-Baxter equation (CYBE), called the classical Hom-Yang-Baxter equation (CHYBE). We show how an arbitrary solution of the CYBE induces multiple infinite families of solutions of the CHYBE. We also introduce the closely related structure of Hom-Lie bialgebras, which generalize Drinfel'd's Lie bialgebras. In particular, we study the questions of duality and cobracket perturbation and the sub-classes of coboundary and quasi-triangular Hom-Lie bialgebras.
We introduce the concept of an extended O-operator that generalizes the well-known concept of a Rota-Baxter operator. We study the associative products coming from these operators and establish the relationship between extended O-operators and the associative Yang-Baxter equation, extended associative Yang-Baxter equation and generalized Yang-Baxter equation.
We study a twisted version of the Yang-Baxter Equation, called the Hom-Yang-Baxter Equation (HYBE), which is motivated by Hom-Lie algebras. Three classes of solutions of the HYBE are constructed, one from Hom-Lie algebras and the others from Drinfeld's (dual) quasi-triangular bialgebras. Each solution of the HYBE can be extended to operators that satisfy the braid relations. Assuming an invertibility condition, these operators give a representation of the braid group.
By means of left quasigroups L=(L, .) and ternary systems, we construct dynamical Yang-Baxter maps associated with L, L, and (.) satisfying an invariance condition that the binary operation (.) of the left quasigroup L defines. Conversely, this construction characterize such dynamical Yang-Baxter maps. The unitary condition of the dynamical Yang-Baxter map is discussed. Moreover, we establish a correspondence between two dynamical Yang-Baxter maps constructed in this paper. This correspondence produces a version of the vertex-IRF correspondence.
We study the Yang-Baxter equation for the $R$-matrices of the six-vertex model. We analyze the solutions and give new parametrizations of the Yang-Baxter equation. In particular, we find the maximal commutative families of parametrized solutions which generalize the $R$-matrices from the affine quantum (super)-groups. Then we give a new parametrization of the Yang-Baxter equation by a groupoid of non-free-fermionic matrices. In the appendix, we study the general algebraic structure of the solutions of the Yang-Baxter and formulate a conjecture that extends the conjecture by Brubaker, Bump, and…
In this article, we study unitary rational solutions of the associative Yang-Baxter equation with three spectral parameters. We explain how such solutions arise from the geometry of vector bundles on a cuspidal cubic curve. Moreover, we investigate how these solutions are related to the quantum and classical Yang-Baxter equations.
A review of some recent results on the dynamical theory of the Yang-Baxter maps (also known as set-theoretical solutions to the quantum Yang-Baxter equation) is given. The central question is the integrability of the transfer dynamics. The relations with matrix factorisations, matrix KdV solitons, Poisson Lie groups, geometric crystals and tropical combinatorics are discussed and demonstrated on several concrete examples.
We use the classification of the quadrirational maps given by Adler, Bobenko and Suris to describe when such maps satisfy the Yang-Baxter relation. We show that the corresponding maps can be characterized by certain singularity invariance condition. This leads to some new families of Yang-Baxter maps corresponding to the geometric symmetries of pencils of quadrics.
We present a method to construct "X" form unitary Yang-Baxter $\breve{R}$ matrices, which act on the tensor product space $V_{i}^{j_{1}}\otimes V_{i+1}^{j_{2}}$. We can obtain a set of entangled states for $(2j_{1}+1)\times (2j_{2}+1)$-dimensional system with these Yang-Baxter $\breve{R}$ matrices. By means of Yang-Baxter approach, a $8\times 8$ Yang-Baxter Hamiltonian is constructed. Yangian symmetry and Yangian generators as shift operators for this Yang-Baxter system are investigated in detail.
In this paper, first we introduce the notion of a Leibniz bialgebra and show that matched pairs of Leibniz algebras, Manin triples of Leibniz algebras and Leibniz bialgebras are equivalent. Then we introduce the notion of a (relative) Rota-Baxter operator on a Leibniz algebra and construct the graded Lie algebra that characterizes relative Rota-Baxter operators as Maurer-Cartan elements. By these structures and the twisting theory of twilled Leibniz algebras, we further define the classical Leibniz Yang-Baxter equation, classical Leibniz r-matrices and triangular Leibniz bialgebras. Finally, w…
We find unitary solutions $\tilde{R}(a)$ to the (multipicative parameter-dependent) $(z,N)$-generalized Yang-Baxter equation that carry the standard measurement basis to $m$-level $N$-partite states that generalize the Bell states corresponding to $\tilde{R}(0)$ in the case $m=N=2$. This is achieved by a careful study of solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation discovered by Fateev and Zamolodchikov in 1982.
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 shown.
We describe the monodromy of dynamical Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equations via Stokes phenomenon. It defines a family of braid groups representations by certain Stokes matrices. In particular, these Stokes matrices satisfy the Yang-Baxter equation.
Birational Yang-Baxter maps (`set-theoretical solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation') are considered. A birational map $(x,y)\mapsto(u,v)$ is called quadrirational, if its graph is also a graph of a birational map $(x,v)\mapsto(u,y)$. We obtain a classification of quadrirational maps on $\CP^1\times\CP^1$, and show that all of them satisfy the Yang-Baxter equation. These maps possess a nice geometric interpretation in terms of linear pencil of conics, the Yang-Baxter property being interpreted as a new incidence theorem of the projective geometry of conics.
Computational methods are an important tool for solving the Yang-Baxter equations(in small dimensions), for classifying (unifying) structures, and for solving related problems. This paper is an account of some of the latest developments on the Yang-Baxter equation, its set-theoretical version, and its applications. We construct new set-theoretical solutions for the Yang-Baxter equation. Unification theories and other results are proposed or proved.
In this paper we introduce a procedure that, given a solution to the Yang-Baxter equation as input, produces a stochastic (or Markovian) solution to (a possibly dynamical version of) the Yang-Baxter equation. We then apply this "stochasticization procedure" to obtain three new, stochastic solutions to several different forms of the Yang-Baxter equation. The first is a stochastic, elliptic solution to the dynamical Yang-Baxter equation; the second is a stochastic, higher rank solution to the dynamical Yang-Baxter equation; and the third is a stochastic solution to a dynamical variant of the tet…
We obtain a simple family of solutions to the set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equation, one which depends only on considering special endomorphisms of a finite group. We show how such an endomorphism gives rise to two non-degenerate solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation, solutions which are inverse to each other. We give concrete examples using dihedral, alternating, symmetric, and metacyclic groups.
Yang-Baxter relations symmetric with respect to the ortho-symplectic superalgebras are studied. We start from the formulation of graded algebras and the linear superspace carrying the vector (fundamental) representation of the ortho-symplectic supergroup. On this basis we study the analogy of the Yang-Baxter operators considered earlier for the cases of orthogonal and symplectic symmetries: the vector (fundamental) R matrix, the L operator defining the Yangian algebra and its first and second order evaluations. We investigate the condition for L(u) in the case of the truncated expansion in inv…
Starting from known solutions of the functional Yang-Baxter equations, we exhibit Miura type of transformations leading to various known integrable quad equations. We then construct, from the same list of Yang-Baxter maps, a series of non-autonomous solvable recurrences of order two.
We discuss associative analogues of classical Yang-Baxter equation meromorphically dependent on parameters. We discover that such equations enter in a description of a general class of parameter-dependent Poisson structures and double Lie and Poisson structures in sense of M. Van den Bergh. We propose a classification of all solutions for one-dimensional associative Yang-Baxter equations.
According to Shibukawa, ternary systems defined on quasigroups and satisfying certain conditions provide a way of constructing dynamical Yang-Baxter maps. After noticing that these conditions can be interpreted as 3-dimensional compatibility of equations on quad-graphs, we investigate when the associated dynamical Yang-Baxter maps are in fact parametric Yang-Baxter maps. In some cases these maps can be obtained as reductions of higher dimensional maps through compatible constraints. Conversely, parametric YB maps on quasigroups with an invariance condition give rise to 3-dimensional compatible…
New examples of the Yang-Baxter maps (or set-theoretical solutions to the quantum Yang-Baxter equation) on the Grassmannians arising from the theory of the matrix KdV equation are discussed. The Lax pairs for these maps are produced using the relations with the inverse scattering problem for the matrix Schrödinger operator.
For any quasi-triangular Hopf algebra, there exists the universal R-matrix, which satisfies the Yang-Baxter equation. It is known that the adjoint action of the universal R-matrix on the elements of the tensor square of the algebra constitutes a quantum Yang-Baxter map, which satisfies the set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equation. The map has a zero curvature representation among L-operators defined as images of the universal R-matrix. We find that the zero curvature representation can be solved by the Gauss decomposition of a product of L-operators. Thereby obtained a quasi-determinant expression o…
Consider the statement "Every Yang-Baxter integrable system is defined to be exactly-solvable". To formalise this statement, definitions and axioms are introduced. Then, using a specific Yang-Baxter integrable bosonic system, it is shown that a paradox emerges. A generalisation for completely integrable bosonic systems is also developed.
Starting from a quantum dilogarithm over a Pontryagin self-dual LCA group $A$, 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 $B\subset A$ 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 $B$-translations of local `spin' variables.
We propose a new generalization of the Yang-Baxter equation, where the R-matrix depends on cluster $y$-variables in addition to the spectral parameters. We point out that we can construct solutions to this new equation from the recently-found correspondence between Yang-Baxter equations and supersymmetric gauge theories. The $S^2$ partition function of a certain 2d $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ quiver gauge theory gives an R-matrix, whereas its FI parameters can be identified with the cluster $y$-variables.
We prove that one-dimensional elastic relativistic collisions satisfy the set-theoretical Yang-Baxter equation. The corresponding collision maps are symplectic and admit a Lax representation. Furthermore, they can be considered as reductions of a higher dimensional integrable Yang-Baxter map on an invariant manifold. In this framework, we study the integrability of transfer maps that represent particular periodic sequences of collisions.
In this paper all seven-vertex type solutions of the coloured Yang-Baxter equation dependent on spectral as well as coloured parameters are given. It is proved that they are composed of five groups of basic solutions, two groups of their degenerate forms up to five solution transformations. Moreover, all solutions can be claasified into two types called Baxter type and free-fermion type.
We explore two distinct methods to introduce integrable defects in a family of integrable sigma-models known as Yang-Baxter models. The first method invokes a modified monodromy matrix encoding an integrable defect separating two integrable systems. As an example we construct integrable defects in the ultralocal version of the $S^2$ Yang-Baxter model or 2d Fateev sausage model. The second method is based on the so-called "frozen" Bäcklund transformations. Lifting the construction to the Drinfel'd double, we show how defect matrices can be constructed for inhomogeneous Yang-Baxter models. We pr…
We introduce an odd supersymmetric version of the Kronecker elliptic function. It satisfies the genus one Fay identity and supersymmetric version of the heat equation. As an application we construct an odd supersymmetric extensions of the elliptic $R$-matrices, which satisfy the classical and the associative Yang-Baxter equations.
We recently introduced a class of ${\mathbb{Z}}_N$ graded discrete Lax pairs and studied the associated discrete integrable systems (lattice equations). In this paper we introduce the corresponding Yang-Baxter maps. Many well known examples belong to this scheme for $N=2$, so, for $N\geq 3$, our systems may be regarded as generalisations of these. In particular, for each $N$ we introduce a generalisation of the map $H_{III}^B$ in the classification of scalar Yang-Baxter maps. For $N=3$ this is equivalent to the Yang-Baxter map associated with the discrete modified Boussinesq equation. For $N\g…
We show that within the six-vertex model there is a parametrized Yang-Baxter equation with nonabelian parameter group GL(2)xGL(1) at the center of the disordered regime. As an application we rederive deformations of the Weyl character formule of Tokuyama and of Hamel and King.
Integrable sigma model with generalized $\mathcal{F}$ structure, Yang-Baxter sigma model with generalized complex structure and multi-Yang-Baxter sigma model
In this paper we show that there are explicit Yang-Baxter maps with Darboux-Lax representation between Grassmann extensions of algebraic varieties. Motivated by some recent results on noncommutative extensions of Darboux transformations, we first derive a Darboux matrix associated with the Grassmann-extended derivative Nonlinear Schrodinger (DNLS) equation, and then we deduce novel endomorphisms of Grassmann varieties, which possess the Yang-Baxter property. In particular, we present ten-dimensional maps which can be restricted to eight-dimensional Yang-Baxter maps on invariant leaves, related…
An elliptic Bailey lemma is formulated on the basis of the univariate rarefied elliptic beta integral. It leads to a generalized operator star-triangle relation and a new solution of the Yang-Baxter equation written as an integral operator with a rarefied elliptic hypergeometric kernel.
Employing bijectivisation of summation identities, we introduce local stochastic moves based on the Yang-Baxter equation for $U_q(\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}_2})$. Combining these moves leads to a new object which we call the spin Hall-Littlewood Yang-Baxter field - a probability distribution on two-dimensional arrays of particle configurations on the discrete line. We identify joint distributions along down-right paths in the Yang-Baxter field with spin Hall-Littlewood processes, a generalization of Schur processes. We consider various degenerations of the Yang-Baxter field leading to new dynamic …
The Schouten-Nijenhuis bracket is generalized for the superspace case and for the Poisson brackets of opposite Grassmann parities. Quite a number of generalizations for the differential analog of the special Yang-Baxter equations is also proposed.
Recent study suggests that there are natural connections between quantum information theory and the Yang--Baxter equation. In this paper, in terms of the generalized almost-complex structure and with the help of its algebra, we define the generalized Bell matrix to yield all the GHZ states from the product base, prove it to form a unitary braid representation and present a new type of solution of the quantum Yang--Baxter equation. We also study Yang-Baxterization, Hamiltonian, projectors, diagonalization, noncommutative geometry, quantum algebra and FRT dual algebra associated with this genera…
The unitary braiding operators describing topological entanglements can be viewed as universal quantum gates for quantum computation. With the help of the Brylinskis's theorem, the unitary solutions of the quantum Yang--Baxter equation can be also related to universal quantum gates. This paper derives the unitary solutions of the quantum Yang--Baxter equation via Yang--Baxterization from the solutions of the braided relation. We study Yang--Baxterizations of the non-standard and standard representations of the six-vertex model and the complete solutions of the non-vanishing eight-vertex model.…
