Azumaya algebra

In mathematics, an Azumaya algebra is a generalization of central simple algebras to R-algebras where R need not be a field. Such a notion was introduced in a 1951 paper of Goro Azumaya, for the case where R is a commutative local ring. The notion was developed further in ring theory, and in algebraic geometry, where Alexander Grothendieck made it the basis for his geometric theory of the Brauer group in Bourbaki seminars from 1964–65. There are now several points of access to the basic definitions. (Wikipedia).

Pavel Safronov: Quantum character varieties at roots of unity

Abstract: Character varieties of closed surfaces have a natural Poisson structure whose quantization may be constructed in terms of the corresponding quantum group. When the quantum parameter is a root of unity, this quantization carries a central subalgebra isomorphic to the algebra of fu

Group Definition (expanded) - Abstract Algebra

The group is the most fundamental object you will study in abstract algebra. Groups generalize a wide variety of mathematical sets: the integers, symmetries of shapes, modular arithmetic, NxM matrices, and much more. After learning about groups in detail, you will then be ready to contin

Abstract:This is a joint work in progress with A. Auel. Let S be a geometrically rational del Pezzo surface over a field k. In this talk, I will show how the k-rationality of S is equivalent to the existence of some semiorthogonal decompositions of its derived category. In particular, the

What is a Module? (Abstract Algebra)

A module is a generalization of a vector space. You can think of it as a group of vectors with scalars from a ring instead of a field. In this lesson, we introduce the module, give a variety of examples, and talk about the ways in which modules and vector spaces are different from one an

Units in a Ring (Abstract Algebra)

The units in a ring are those elements which have an inverse under multiplication. They form a group, and this “group of units” is very important in algebraic number theory. Using units you can also define the idea of an “associate” which lets you generalize the fundamental theorem of ar
