Intertwining operators for Sklyanin algebra and elliptic hypergeometric series

Intertwining operators for infinite-dimensional representations of the Sklyanin algebra with spins ?$?$ and −?−1$-?-1$ are constructed using the technique of intertwining vectors for elliptic L$L$-operator. They are expressed in terms of elliptic hypergeometric series with operator argument. The intertwining operators obtained (W$W$-operators) serve as building blocks for the elliptic R$R$-matrix which intertwines tensor product of two L$L$-operators taken in infinite-dimensional representations of the Sklyanin algebra with arbitrary spin. The Yang–Baxter equation for this R$R$-matrix follows from simpler equations of the star–triangle type for the W$W$-operators. A natural graphic representation of the objects and equations involved in the construction is used.
