Representations and Cohomology: Volume 1, Basic Representation Theory of Finite Groups and Associative Algebras: Basic Representation Theory of Finite ... 1 (Cambridge Studies in Advanced Mathematics) Book

Now in paperback this is the second of two volumes that will provide an introdcution to modern developments in the representation theory of finite groups and associative algebras. The subject is viewed from the perspective of homological algebra and the theory of representations of finite dimensional algebras; the author emphasises modular representations and the homological algebra associated with their categories.This volume concentrates on the cohomology of groups, always with representations in view.Read More

  • Product Description

    This is the first of two volumes providing an introduction to modern developments in the representation theory of finite groups and associative algebras, which have transformed the subject into a study of categories of modules. Thus, Dr. Benson's unique perspective in this book incorporates homological algebra and the theory of representations of finite-dimensional algebras. This volume is primarily concerned with the exposition of the necessary background material, and the heart of the discussion is a lengthy introduction to the (Auslander-Reiten) representation theory of finite dimensional algebras, in which the techniques of quivers with relations and almost-split sequences are discussed in some detail.
