How many non-isomorphic associative algebras of dimension 2 over the field F_{p^k} are there?
How many non-isomorphic associative algebras of dimension 2 over the field F_{p^k} are there?
As much as I have searched, I have not found any results that answer my question; not even for k = 1,2.

Algebra with a certain abelian group as the multiplicative group
Let $A$ be an abelian group. Are there an algebra $\mathfrak{X}(A)$ s.t. the multiplication group is isomorphic to A ? i.e.
$$
\mathfrak{X}(A)^{\times} \simeq A.
$$
For example, for $A=\mathbb{Z}/4\...

Endomorphism rings of infinitely generated free modules generated by idempotents?
Let $M$ be a free right $R$-module. When $M_R\cong R_R^n$ with $n\in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 1}$, then we know that the endomorphism ring $E={\rm End}(M_R)$ is isomorphic to $\mathbb{M}_n(R)$. We also know ...

Uniqueness of character for Z_+-rings
I have a question about the proof of proposition $3.3.6(3)$ in "Tensor Categories" by Etingof et al..
This part states that for $A$, transitive unital $\mathbb Z_+$-ring, there is a unique character ...

Where can we find polynomial's root?
Let $R$ be a ring (not commutative in general) with identity and let
$\Psi(x) = x^m-\sum_{j=0}^{m-1}\psi_jx^j$ be a monic polynomial over $R$. I want to construct a ring extension $K$ of $R$, which ...

Whether a given algebra is the algebra of endomorphisms for a vector space
Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field and let $A$ be an associative unital $\mathbb{F}$-algebra. Is there a criterion to let me know if $A$ is isomorphic to the algebra $\mbox{End}(\mathbf{V})$ of endomorphisms ...

Maximal commutative subrings of the endomorphism ring of a vector space
Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field, and $\mathbf{V}$ a possibly uncountably generated $\mathbb{F}$-vector space. Let $\mbox{End}_\mathbb{F}(\mathbf{V})$ be the endomorphism ring of $\mathbf{V}$. That the ...
