"sí" o "si"
Él resuelve el problema por sí solo.
「彼は一人で問題を解決します」で合ってますか?
Is hat sentence mean "He settles a problem by himself."
Is it correct?
¿Cómo se escribe " si " en lugar de " sí " ?
"si"は「はい」と「もし」の他の意味もありますか?
I know "Sí" is "Yes" and "Si" is "If".
But I don't know another using.

Yes, it is correct what you think.
I'm a native, I don't usually question my idiom, but thinking about it, we use "sí" as a pronoun for not repeating, but just in singular third person (himself/herself).
For example:
(Singular) He talk to himself = Él se habla a sí mismo.
He thought to himself = El pensó para sí/ El pensó para sí mismo.
¿when use "sí" or "sí mism@"? That's collocation, not a rule.
Here's another weird use:
(Plural) They understand each other = Ellos se entienden entre sí/Ellos se entienden el uno al otro/Ellos se entienden el uno con el otro. (For two girls) /la una con la otra.
So, it works just in plural third person, but there are other ways to say the same. Either way, you'll never find "sí" as pronoun for first and second person, singular or plural.
Maybe there're other uses I can't remember.

1.- I think that should be better to write: Él resuelve el problema por sí mismo. But it isn't incorrect what you have writen.
2.- It's as you say: si is if and sí is yes. I will try with an example:
- Si vienes a casa te invito a comer
- Vas a venir a casa? Sí, voy a ir
