My research activity focuses on the interaction between set-theoretical solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation and some algebraic structures, such as skew braces, cycle sets, racks, and their generalizations, with special attention to constructive aspects of solutions and their reflections.
Moreover, I am interested in determining set-theoretical solutions to the pentagon equation on specific classes of semigroups.
Another interest is to describe regular subgroups of an affine group of a vector space.
