Quantum group as (relative) Drinfeld double? I didn't realize this went all the way back to Majid. This is the perfect reference - thanks! |

Mathematicians whose works were criticized by contemporaries but became widely accepted later Well, I would respond by saying that this is an example precisely in the vein of your item (3). It is the case that Eilenberg and MacLane's ideas were treated with some skepticism at first, but that they simply continued working them out, writing excellent textbooks, working at making them accessible, finding examples, and illustrating the value of the work. Unlike some of the less fortunate visionaries people have posted about here, they got to see the impact of their ideas throughout their remaining mathematical careers. I don't think the OP required only sad or unjust stories... |
