In the classical equation, one looks for $R\in\Lambda^2\mathfrak g$ such that $$[R,R]=0,$$ where the bracket is Schouten's bracker in $\Lambda^\bullet\mathfrak g$, the exterior algebra on a Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$. In the quantum one (in its non-parametric form...), one looks for endomorphisms $R:V\otimes V\to V\otimes V$ of tensor squares of vector spaces $V$ such that $$R_{12} \ R_{13} \ R_{23} = R_{23} \ R_{13} \ R_{12},$$

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" appears in …
