Representation Theory of Hopf Algebras

Representation Theory Of Hopf Algebras

In abstract algebra, a representation of a Hopf algebra is a representation of its underlying associative algebra. That is, a representation of a Hopf algebra H over a field K is a K-vector space V with an action H × VV usually denoted by juxtaposition (that is, the image of (h,v) is written hv). The vector space V is called an H-module.

Famous quotes containing the word theory:

    Freud was a hero. He descended to the “Underworld” and met there stark terrors. He carried with him his theory as a Medusa’s head which turned these terrors to stone.
    —R.D. (Ronald David)
