Abstract:
We study the $\text{GL}_N$ rational $R$-matrix, which turns into the $11$-vertex $R$-matrix in the $N=2$ case. First, we describe its relations to dynamical and semidynamical $R$-matrices using the IRF–vertex type transformations. As a by-product, a new explicit form of the $\text{GL}_N$$R$-matrix is derived. Next, we prove the quantum and the associative Yang–Baxter equations. A set of other $R$-matrix properties and $R$-matrix identities are also proved.
