Abstract

We establish a correspondence between the invariant subsets of a non-degenerate symmetric set-theoretical solution of the quantum Yang–Baxter equation and the parabolic subgroups of its structure group, equipped with its canonical Garside structure. Moreover, we introduce the notion of a foldable solution, which extends the one of a decomposable solution.
