Hecke algebras for set-theoretical solutions to the Yang--Baxter equation

Edouard Feingesicht

Abstract

We define a concept of Hecke algebra for structure groups of set-theoretical solutions to the Yang--Baxter equation. As a comparison to Artin--Tits groups of spherical type, we study some properties of this construction, while also highlighting some differences that appear, which shows a difference between finite Coxeter groups and the "Coxeter-like" group introduced by Dehornoy. We also relate this definition to known constructions on solutions (retractions). Finally, we study a particular case related to Torus Knot groups and Complex Reflexion groups.

Key Result

Theorem 1

Let $(X,r)$ be an involutive non-degenerate set-theoretical solution to the Yang--Baxter equation of size $n$ and Dehornoy's class $d$. Denote $G$ the structure group of $(X,r)$ and $\overline G_2=G/\langle x^{[2d]}\rangle_{x\in X}$ its germ associated to $2d$ (two times Dehornoy's class). For any i Then the followings hold:
