Braid Groups and Yang-Baxter Equation

Date:

This is the 3+x seminar on The Integrability Problems in Mathematical Physics, organised by Xiaomeng Xu in 2025 Fall at Peking University.

The reference is GTM 155 Quantum Groups X6-X7, by Christian Kassel. I introduced the concept of braid groups \(B_n\), some representations of \(B_n\) and the relation with \(S_n\).
