Representations of Algebras and Related Topics

Download or read book Representations of Algebras and Related Topics written by Andrzej Skowroński and published by European Mathematical Society. This book was released on 2011 with total page 744 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, which explores recent trends in the representation theory of algebras and its exciting interaction with geometry, topology, commutative algebra, Lie algebras, combinatorics, quantum algebras, and theoretical field, is conceived as a handbook to provide easy access to the present state of knowledge and stimulate further development. The many topics discussed include quivers, quivers with potential, bound quiver algebras, Jacobian algebras, cluster algebras and categories, Calabi-Yau algebras and categories, triangulated and derived categories, and quantum loop algebras. This book consists of thirteen self-contained expository survey and research articles and is addressed to researchers and graduate students in algebra as well as a broader mathematical community. The articles contain a large number of examples and open problems and give new perspectives for research in the field.
