MATH 263B: Quantum Groups and the Yang-Baxter Equation

Two classes of phenomena in mathematical physics, namely the solvable lattice models in statistical physics and Heisenberg spin chains lead to the same identity, namely the Yang-Baxter equation. Quasitriangular Hopf algebras (quantum groups), "braided monoidal category," such as Kuperberg's proof of the alternating sign conjecture, deformations of the Weyl character formula, and knot invariants such as the Jones polynomial.
