Add your own review!

Overview

The text is based on an established graduate course given at MIT that provides an introduction to the theory of the dynamical Yang-Baxter equation and its applications, which is an important area in representation theory and quantum groups. The book, which contains many detailed proofs and explicit calculations, will be accessible to graduate students of mathematics, who are familiar with the basics of representation theory of semisimple Lie algebras.

Reviews

The book offers a readable introduction to a very interesting, interdisciplinary field. EMS Newsletter The book, which comprises nine chapters, is very well written, starting almost from scratch and containing detailed proofs of all statements as weel as motivating discussions. It is ideal for a graduate course on quantum grounps and special functions. Mathematical Reviews This monograph provides an excellent introduction to the theory of the quantum dynamical Yang-Baxter equation from th point of view of (quantum) integrable systems and special function theory.
