Decomposition theorems for involutive solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation

Abstract

Motivated by the proof of Rump of a conjecture of Gateva-Ivanova on the decomposability of square-free solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation, we present several other decomposability theorems based on the cycle structure of a certain permutation associated with the solution.
