Funded Activity Summary

Algebras with Frobenius morphisms and quantum groups. In this digitalized world, our life relies on mathematics more than ever. Counting and numbers are just one example of this. Another is the public key codes for online payments and transactions. Mathematics is of enormous importance in this technology dominated age. This proposal is to carry out high level mathematical research in Australia. Basic research on quantum groups underpins applied research and certain areas such as quantum mechanics and string theory. Some structure of quantum groups is too complicated to be seen by even a professional mathematician. A possible interpretation by using representations over a finite field would make it more usable and accessible by computer.
