Space of solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation

YBE is an overdetermined system of algebraic equations. Its general solution is unknown even in the simplest cases. Known solutions, various methods: Onsager, McGuire, Yang, Baxter, . . . (over 65 different authors; native languages: Russian 26, Japanese 15, English 9, German 4, French 4, . . . , Norwegian 1.) Algorithmic recipes (Drinfeld,Jimbo) Universal R-matrix for quantized (affine) Lie algebras, or quantum groups. 3D-generalization: tetrahedron equation, Zamolodchikov (1980) followed by Baxter, Bazhanov, Kashaev, Korepanov, Mangazeev, Maillet-Nijhoff, Sergeev, Stroganov,. . .

General structure of Boltzmann weights In general, weights W are related to W via W p−q(x, y) =

  • S(x)S(y)Wη−p+q(x, y) ,

where S(x) are one-“spin” weights and η is the non-zero crossing parameter (value of an open angle). In most cases the Boltzmann weights W are symmetric, Wp−q(x, y) = Wp−q(y, x) . Let for shortness p − q = α1 , q − r = α3 . The star-triangle relation takes the form (assume continuous spins)

  • dx0 S(x0) Wη−α1(x1, x0)Wα1+α3(x2, x0)Wη−α3(x3, x0)

= Wα1(x2, x3)Wη−α1−α3(x1, x3)Wα3(x1, x2)

Connection with the theory of elliptic hypergeometric functions

As a mathematical identity the star-triangle relation for this solution is equivalent to Spiridonov’s celebrated elliptic beta integral (2001). This identity lies in the basis of the theory of elliptic hypergeometric functions. Its connection with the Yang-Baxter equation (star-triangle relation) was not hitherto known
