Hilbert s third problem .. Tensor products and duals of representations of Lie algebras .. Representations ofsl(2).
group algebra A= C[G] of a finite group G– the algebra with basis ag,g∈ Gand multiplication law agah = agh. We will show that any finite dimensional representation of Ais a direct sum of irreducible representations, i.e., the notions of an irreducible and indecomposable representation are the same for A(Maschke’s theorem).
