Elliptic solution for modified tetrahedron equations

As is known, tetrahedron equations lead to the commuting family of transfer-matrices and provide the integrability of corresponding three-dimensional lattice models. We present the modified version of these equations which give the commuting family of more complicated two-layer transfer-matrices. In the static limit we have succeeded in constructing the solution of these equations in terms of elliptic functions.Comment: 11 page

Generalized Yang-Baxter Equation

A generalization of the Yang-Baxter equation is proposed. It enables to construct integrable two-dimensional lattice models with commuting two-layer transfer matrices, while single-layer ones are not necessarily commutative. Explicit solutions to the generalized equations are found. They are related with Botzmann weights of the $sl(3)$ chiral Potts model.Comment: 13 pages, TeX file. IHEP-93-?
