Groups, Rings, Group Rings, and Hopf Algebras
Share this pageEdited by Jeffrey Bergen; Stefan Catoiu; William Chin
This volume contains the proceedings of the
International Conference on Groups, Rings, Group Rings, and Hopf
Algebras, held October 2–4, 2015 at Loyola University, Chicago, IL, and
the AMS Special Session on Groups, Rings, Group Rings, and Hopf
Algebras, held October 3–4, 2015, at Loyola University, Chicago, IL.
Both conferences were held in honor of Donald S. Passman's 75th
Birthday.
Centered in the area of group rings and algebras, this volume
contains a mixture of cutting edge research topics in group theory,
ring theory, algebras and their representations, Hopf algebras and
quantum groups.
Readership
Graduate students and research mathematicians interested in group theory, ring theory, and Hopf algebras.
