Permutative Yang-Baxter monoids
Suppose that $f,g:X^{2}\rightarrow X,T:X^{2}\rightarrow X^{2}$ are mappings such that $T(x,y)=(f(x,y),g(x,y))$. An element
$1\in X$ is said to be an identity if $T(1,x)=(x,1),T(x,1)=(1,x)$. The ...

Why does the definition of a braided monoidal category not mention the braid equation?
Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a braided monoidal category (BMC) with braiding $\gamma$. In the definition of a BMC $\gamma$ is required to satisfy the two hexagon identities. However since "braided" ...

Examples of Yang-Baxter monoids
Then we say that an algebra $(X,f,g,\circ,1)$ is a Yang-Baxter monoid if it satisfies the following identities:
$(X,\circ,1)$ is a monoid,
$f(x,1)=1,f(1,x)=x,g(x,1)=x,g(1,x)=1$
$x\circ y=f(x,y)\circ ...

Partially permutative matrices
Let $V$ be a finite dimensional vector space over a field $K$. Then a map
$L:V\otimes V\rightarrow V\otimes V$ is said to satisfy the Yang-Baxter equation if $(L\otimes I)(I\otimes L)(L\otimes I)=(I\...

Is the action of free self-distributive algebras on racks computable in polynomial time?
Let $B_{\infty}$ denote the infinite strand braid group. Let
$\mathrm{sh}:B_{\infty}\rightarrow B_{\infty}$ be the mapping where
$\mathrm{sh}(\sigma_{i})=\sigma_{i+1}$ whenever $i\geq 1$. Then
$B_{\...

Does shifted conjugacy still give you free self-distributive algebras on one generator for quotient groups of the braid groups?
Let $B_{\infty}$ denote the infinite strand braid group. Let $\mathrm{sh}:B_{\infty}\rightarrow B_{\infty}$ be the group homomorphism where $\mathrm{sh}(\sigma_{i})=\sigma_{i+1}$ for all $i>0$.
