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…
