Download or read book Modular Interfaces: Modular Lie Algebras, Quantum Groups, and Lie Superalgebras written by Vyjayanthi Chari and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1997 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of papers dedicated to Richard E. Block, whose research has been largely devoted to the study of Lie algebras of prime characteristic (specifically the classification of simple Lie algebras). The volume presents proceedings of a conference held at the University of California at Riverside in February 1994 on the occasion of his retirement. The conference focused on the interplay between the theory of Lie algebras of prime characteristic, quantum groups, and Lie superalgebras. Titles in this series are co-published with International Press, Cambridge, MA, USA.
