There is a unique finite group that lies inside the 2-dimensional unitary group but not in the special unitary group, and maps by the symmetric square to an irreducible subgroup of the 3-dimensional real special orthogonal group. In an…

In this paper we study the representation theory for certain ``half lattice vertex algebras.'' In particular we construct a large class of irreducible modules for these vertex algebras. We also discuss how the representation theory of these…

We study the representation dimension of the class of algebras known as quantum complete intersections. For such an algebra, we show that the representation dimension is at most twice its codimension. Moreover, we show that the…

We survey some important results concerning the finite--dimensional representations of the loop algebra of a simple complex Lie algebra, and their twisted loop subalgebras. In particular, we review the parametrization and description of the…

We survey variety theory for modules of finite dimensional Hopf algebras, recalling some definitions and basic properties of support and rank varieties where they are known. We focus specifically on properties known for classes of examples…

We introduce special classes of irreducible representations of groups: thick representations and dense representations. Denseness implies thickness, and thickness implies irreducibility. We show that absolute thickness and absolute…

By [R. Bautista, P. Gabriel, A.V Roiter., L. Salmeron, Representation-finite algebras and multiplicative basis. Invent. Math. 81 (1985) 217-285.], a finite-dimensional algebra having finitely many isoclasses of indecomposable…

We study representations of the double affine Lie algebra associated to a simple Lie algebra. We construct a family of indecomposable integrable representations and identify their irreducible quotients. We also give a condition for the…

Over an algebraically closed field we classify all minimal representation-infinite algebras where the lattice of two-sided ideals is not distributive. As a consequence there are only finitely many isomorphism classes of minimal…

We discuss the concepts of fine and coarse moduli spaces in the context of finite dimensional algebras over algebraically closed fields. In particular, our formulation of a moduli problem and its potential strong or weak solution is adapted…

Consider a finite-dimensional algebra $A$ and any of its moduli spaces $\mathcal{M}(A,\mathbf{d})^{ss}_{\theta}$ of representations. We prove a decomposition theorem which relates any irreducible component of…

This work explores the deformation theory of algebraic structures in a very general setting. These structures include commutative, associative algebras, Lie algebras, and the infinity versions of these structures, the strongly homotopy…

We give a survey on the theory of representation-finite and certain minimal representation-infinite algebras.The main goals are the existence of multiplicative bases and of coverings with good properties. Both are attained via…

We consider selfinjective Artin algebras whose cohomology groups are finitely generated over a central ring of cohomology operators. For such an algebra, we show that the representation dimension is strictly greater than the maximal…

Let $\Lambda$ be an $n$-Auslander algebra with global dimension $n+1$. In this paper, we prove that $\Lambda$ is representation-finite if and only if the number of non-isomorphic indecomposable $\Lambda$-modules with projective dimension…

Primarily this paper presents an expository report on alternatives to the traditional methods of classifying representations of finite dimensional algebras. Some new results illustrating such alternatives for algebras with only finitely…

We prove that two finite-dimensional commutative algebras over an algebraically closed field are isomorphic if and only if they give rise to isomorphic representations of the category of finite sets and surjective maps.
