Category of modules

In algebra, given a ring R, the category of left modules over R is the category whose objects are all left modules over R and whose morphisms are all module homomorphisms between left R-modules. For example, when R is the ring of integers Z, it is the same thing as the category of abelian groups. The category of right modules is defined in a similar way. Note: Some authors use the term module category for the category of modules. This term can be ambiguous since it could also refer to a category with a monoidal-category action. (Wikipedia).

Rings and modules 2: Group rings

This lecture is part of an online course on rings and modules. We decribe some examples of rings constructed from groups and monoids, such as group rings and rings of Dirichlet polynomials. For the other lectures in the course see https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8yHsr3EFj52XDLrm

What is a Module? (Abstract Algebra)

A module is a generalization of a vector space. You can think of it as a group of vectors with scalars from a ring instead of a field. In this lesson, we introduce the module, give a variety of examples, and talk about the ways in which modules and vector spaces are different from one an

Rings 8 Free modules

This lecture is part of an online course on rings and modules. We mainly discuss the problem of whether free modules over a ring have a well defined ran, generalizing the dimension of a vector space. We show that they do over many rings, including all non-zero commutative rings, but give

Paul-André Melliès - A Functorial Excursion between Algebraic Geometry and Linear Logic

In this talk, I will use the functor of points approach to Algebraic Geometry to establish that every covariant presheaf X on the category of commutative rings — and in particular every scheme X — comes equipped “above it” with a symmetric monoidal closed category PshModX of presheaves of

Ben Elias: Categorifying Hecke algebras at prime roots of unity

Thirty years ago, Soergel changed the paradigm with his algebraic construction of the Hecke category. This is a categorification of the Hecke algebra at a generic parameter, where the parameter is categorified by a grading shift. One key open problem in categorification is to categorify He
