In physics, the YangâBaxter equation (or starâtriangle relation) is a consistency equation which was first introduced in the field of statistical mechanics. It depends on the idea that in some scattering situations, particles may preserve their momentum while changing their quantum internal states. It states that a matrix {\displaystyle R}R, acting on two out of three objects, satisfies | In physics, the YangâBaxter equation (or starâtriangle relation) is a consistency equation which was first introduced in the field of statistical mechanics.

The YangâBaxter equation also shows up when discussing knot theory and the braid groups where $${R}$$ corresponds to swapping two strands. Since one can swap three strands two different ways, the YangâBaxter equation enforces that both paths are the same. | ||
