Also, one might think of algebras as being used to add more data to basic geometry as on a graph, for instance. Of course this is a common theme which is considered in numerous settings. From an analysts' perspective, compact groups, their representations, and more general topological groups and their representations are basic objects of study. Finite groups are like groups which are especially compact, and with some extra structure. As long as one considers finite groups and finite-dimensional vector spaces, one might as well consider general underlying fields k too. This includes p-adic fields, which are quite interesting for analysis.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2002-11-11T15:07:45.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "linear operators", "finite-dimensional vector spaces", "topics pertaining", "finite groups", "p-adic fields" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2002math.....11171S" } } }
