In this paper we consider families of multiparametric $R$-matrices to make a systematic study of the boundary Yang-Baxter equations in order to discuss the corresponding families of multiparametric $K$-matrices. Our results are indeed non-trivial generalization of the $K$-matrix solutions of the {\cal {U}}_{q}[D_{n+1}^{(2)}] vertex model when distinct reflections and extra free-parameters are admissible.

We consider the cohomological Hall algebra Y of a Lagrangian substack of the moduli stack of representations of the preprojective algebra of an arbitrary quiver Q, and its actions on the cohomology of quiver varieties. We conjecture that Y is equal, after a suitable extension of scalars, to the Yangian introduced by Maulik and Okounkov, and we construct an embedding of Y in the Yangian, intertwining the respective actions of both algebras on the cohomology of quiver varieties...

Let g be a complex semisimple Lie algebra and Yg its Yangian. Drinfeld proved that the universal R-matrix of Yg gives rise to rational solutions of the quantum Yang-Baxter equations on irreducible, finite-dimensional representations of Yg. This result was recently extended by Maulik-Okounkov to symmetric Kac-Moody algebras, and representations arising from geometry. We show that this rationality ceases to hold for arbitrary finite-dimensional representations, at least if one ...

The exotic quantum double and its universal R-matrix for quantum Yang-Baxter equation are constructed in terms of Drinfeld's quantum double theory.As a new quasi-triangular Hopf algebra, it is much different from those standard quantum doubles that are the q-deformations for Lie algebras or Lie superalgebras. By studying its representation theory,many-parameter representations of the exotic quantum double are obtained with an explicit example associated with Lie algebra $A_2$...

We develop the approach of Faddeev, Reshetikhin, Takhtajan [1] and of Majid [2] that enables one to associate a quasitriangular Hopf algebra to every regular invertible constant solution of the quantum Yang-Baxter equations. We show that such a Hopf algebra is actually a quantum double.

In this paper we define and study convolution products for modules over certain families of VV algebras. We go on to study morphisms between these products which yield solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation so that in fact these morphisms are $R$-matrices. We study the properties that these $R$-matrices have with respect to simple modules with the hope that this is a first step towards determining the existence of a (quantum) cluster algebra structure on a natural quotient of ...

We describe the construction of trigonometric R-matrices corresponding to the (multiplicity-free) tensor product of any two irreducible representations of a quantum algebra $U_q(\G)$. Our method is a generalization of the tensor product graph method to the case of two different representations. It yields the decomposition of the R-matrix into projection operators. Many new examples of trigonometric R-matrices (solutions to the spectral parameter dependent Yang-Baxter equation...

We obtain an R-matrix or matrix representation of the Artin braid group acting in a canonical way on the vector space of every (super)-Lie algebra or braided-Lie algebra. The same result applies for every (super)-Hopf algebra or braided-Hopf algebra. We recover some known representations such as those associated to racks. We also obtain new representations such as a non-trivial one on the ring $k[x]$ of polynomials in one variable, regarded as a braided-line. Representations ...

In the first part we recall two famous sources of solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation -- R-matrices and Yetter-Drinfel$'$d (=YD) modules -- and an interpretation of the former as a particular case of the latter. We show that this result holds true in the more general case of weak R-matrices, introduced here. In the second part we continue exploring the ''braided'' aspects of YD module structure, exhibiting a braided system encoding all the axioms from the definition of YD m...

In this paper, we present a canonical quantization of Lie bialgebra structures on the formal power series $\mathfrak{d}[\![t]\!]$ with coefficients in the cotangent Lie algebra $\mathfrak{d} = T^*\mathfrak{g} = \mathfrak{g} \ltimes \mathfrak{g}^*$ to a simple complex Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. We prove that these quantizations produce twists to the natural analog of the Yangian for $\mathfrak{d}$. Moreover, we construct spectral $R$-matrices for these twisted Yangians as com...
