The pentagon equation (PE) is a basic equation of Mathematical Physics.
Recent developments in this field of investigations can be found in [1]. In this talk, we show a new application of the PE. In particular, the PE turns out to be a useful tool to find set-theoretical solutions of the well-known Yang-Baxter equation.
