  "abstract": "We study moduli spaces and moduli stacks for representations of associative algebras in Azumaya algebras, in rather general settings. We do not impose any stability condition and work over arbitrary ground rings, but restrict attention to the so-called Schur representations, where the only automorphisms are scalar multiplications. The stack comprises twisted representations, which are representations that live on the gerbe of splittings for the Azumaya algebra. Such generalized spaces and stacks appear naturally: For any rational point on the classical coarse moduli space of matrix representations, the machinery of non-abelian cohomology produces a modified moduli problem for which the point acquires geometric origin. The latter are given by representations in Azumaya algebras.",
