Abstract: Indecomposable involutive non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions (X,r) of the Yang-Baxter equation of cardinality p1cdotspn, for different prime numbers p1,ldots,pn, are studied. It is proved that they are multipermutation solutions of level leqn. In particular, there is no simple solution of a non-prime square-free cardinality. This solves a problem stated in [F. Ced'o, J. Okni'nski, Constructing finite simple solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation, Adv. Math. 391 (2021), 107968] and provides a far reaching extension of several earlier results on indecomposability of solutions. The proofs are based on a detailed study of the brace structure on the permutation group mathcalG(X,r) associated to such a solution. It is proved that p1,ldots,pn are the only primes dividing the order of mathcalG(X,r). Moreover, the Sylow pi-subgroups of mathcalG(X,r) are elementary abelian pi-groups and if Pi denotes the Sylow pi-subgroup of the additive group of the left brace mathcalG(X,r), then there exists a permutation sigmainSn such that Psigma(1),,Psigma(1)Psigma(2),dots,Psigma(1)Psigma(2)cdotsPsigma(n) are ideals of the left brace mathcalG(X,r) and mathcalG(X,r)=P1P2cdotsPn. In addition, indecomposable solutions of cardinality p1cdotspn that are multipermutation of level n are constructed, for every nonnegative integer n.


In this paper, the authors investigate finite indecomposable involutive non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions \((X, r)\) of the Yang-Baxter equation of cardinality \(p_1 \ldots p_n\), for different primes \(p_1, \ldots, p_n\). This study is mainly motivated by some issues that arose by the same authors in [Adv. Math. 391, Article ID 107968, 40 p. (2021; Zbl 1485.16032)]. The main result states that these solutions are multipermutation of level \(\leq n\), and the proof is based on the study of the brace structure on the permutation group \(G(X, r)\). More specifically, they extend the description of all indecomposable solutions of prime cardinality, obtained by \textit{P. Etingof} et al. [Duke Math. J. 100, No. 2, 169--209 (1999; Zbl 0969.81030)].
