Abstract
We extend a result of Ramirez and Vendramin on the decomposability of a finite non-degenerate involutive solution of the Yang-Baxter equation. We exhibit examples showing that the conditions for (in)decomposability in our obtained results are not necessary. Furthermore, we answer a question of Ramirez and Vendramin affirmatively in case the permutation group is nilpotent.
