Everything about Algebra representation

Study of abstract algebraic structures

In abstract algebra, a representation of an associative algebra is a module for that algebra. Here an associative algebra is a ring. If the algebra is not unital, it may be made so in a standard way ; there is no essential difference between modules for the resulting unital ring, in which the identity acts by the identity mapping, and representations of the algebra.
