Set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation from inverse braces
Francesco Catino, Marzia Mazzotta, Susanna Tieni
We introduce the algebraic structure of an inverse brace, namely, a triple such that both and are inverse semigroups and the following identity ho…
Right groups, left quasigroups, and right heaps
Andrea Albano, Alberto Facchini, Marzia Mazzotta +1
A right group is a semigroup in which, for every , there is a unique such that . In this article, we develop the theory of heaps starting…
Right groups and the set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equation
Andrea Albano, Alberto Facchini, Marzia Mazzotta +1
In this paper, we provide techniques to obtain left non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation, drawing on the class of right groups. To this end, we introd…
Parametric reflection maps: an algebraic approach
Anastasia Doikou, Marzia Mazzotta, Paola Stefanelli
We study solutions of the parametric set-theoretic reflection equation from an algebraic perspective by employing recently derived generalizations of the familiar shelves and racks…
Quasi racks, quasi bijective and quasi non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation
Marzia Mazzotta, Paola Stefanelli, Magdalena Wiertel
This work initiates a systematic study of the class of quasi bijective and quasi non-degenerate solutions to the set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equation. The motivation stems from the o…
Set-theoretical solutions to the pentagon equation: a survey
Marzia Mazzotta
This survey aims to collect the main results of the theory of the set-theoretical solutions to the pentagon equation obtained up to now in the literature. In particular, we present…
