New type of solutions of Yang-Baxter equations, quantum entanglement and related physical models

Abstract

Starting from the Kauffman-Lomonaco braiding matrix transforming the natural basis to Bell states, the spectral parameter describing the entanglement is introduced through Yang-Baxterization. It gives rise to a new type of solutions for Yang-Baxter equation, called the type-II that differs from the familiar solution called type-I of YBE associated with the usual chain models. The Majorana fermionic version of type-II yields the Kitaev Hamiltonian. The introduced $\ell_1$ -norm leads to the maximum of the entanglement by taking the extreme value and shows that it is related to the Wigner's D-function. Based on the Yang-Baxter equation the 3-body S-Matrix for type-II is explicitly given. Different from the type-I solution, the type-II solution of YBE should be considered in describing quantum information. The idea is further extended to $\mathbb{Z}_3$ parafermion model based on $SU(3)$ principal representation. The type-II is in difference from the familiar type-I in many respects. For example, the quantities corresponding to velocity in the chain models obey the Lorentzian additivity $\frac{u+v}{1+uv}$ rather than Galilean rule $(u+v)$. Most possibly, for the type-II solutions of YBE there may not exist RTT relation. Further more, for $\mathbb{Z}_3$ parafermion model we only need the rational Yang-Baxterization, which seems like trigonometric. Similar discussions are also made in terms of generalized Yang-Baxter equation with three spin spaces $\{1,\frac{1}{2},\frac{1}{2}\}$.
