Let $k$ be a base commutative ring, and let $A$ be a (unital but not necessarily commutative) $k$-algebra. The cone on $A$ is the ring $CA$ of infinite matrices $(a_{ij})_{i,j \geq 1}$ that are ...

Let $k$ be a field, $A$ a $k$-algebra, and $V$ a $k$-vector space. Then we can consider the representation varieties of $A$ on $V$: $\mathrm{Hom}_{k\textrm{-alg}}(A, \mathfrak{gl}(V))$ and $\mathrm{...

Let $K$ be a field, $A$ a unital associative $K$-algebra and $M$ a left $A$-module. A connection on $M$ is a $K$-linear map $\nabla:M\to \Omega^1A\otimes_AM$ which satisfies the Leibniz rule. ...

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field. Let $R := k\langle x,y \rangle/(yx-qxy) (q \in k^*)$. We often call $R$ a quantum plane. If $q$ is a primitive $n$-th root, then for any $(\zeta, \xi) \in k^* ...
