This is the official blog of Algebras and Representation Theory, moderated by its Editor-in-chief Alain Verschoren, from the University of Antwerp.

The theory of rings, algebras and their representations has evolved into a well-defined subdiscipline of general algebra, combining its proper methodology with that of other disciplines and leading to a wide variety of application fields. Due to this, many papers in these domains got dispersed in the scientific literature, making it extremely difficult for researchers to keep track of recent developments.

Algebras and Representation Theory aims to play a unifying role in this, presenting to its readers both up-to-date information about progress within the field of rings, algebras and their representations, as well as clarifying relationships with other fields. It realizes this by publishing significant and original research papers, as well as expository survey papers written by specialists, wishing to present the ‘state-of-the-art’ of well-defined subjects or subdomains.

Our blog should be viewed as a natural extension of the journal, allowing fellow researchers to comment and expand on published contributions, whose abstracts will be added to the blog as soon as the corresponding paper is published.

Texts submitted to the blog will be reviewed by the moderator, who decides whether to accept it for publication. This decision will be taken rather quickly, in principle within a couple of days.

I hope you will enjoy our blog and make frequent use of it, be it by adding and sharing your own view or by using its contents in your own research.

See you online,
Alain Verschoren
