Factorization of the r-matrix for the quantum algebra Uq(sl n )

  • Published:
Journal of Mathematical Sciences Aims and scope Submit manuscript

We propose a method for construction of the general solution of the Yang–Baxter equation with the U q (sℓ n ) symmetry algebra. This method is based on the factorization property of the corresponding L-operator. We present a closed-form expression for the universal R-matrix in the form of a difference operator acting on the space of functions of n(n − 1) variables. Bibliography: 16 titles.
