Allen Herman | PIMS - Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences

PIMS Site Director & Professor of Mathematics, University of Regina

Allen Herman is a Professor of Mathematics at the University of Regina. His research activity revolves around realization problems in ordinary and integral representation theory of groups and closely-related rings, which include reality-based algebras/table algebras/adjacency algebras of association schemes, as well as Hopf algebras/quantum groups. He has ongoing collaborative projects on the representation theory of classical groups over finite local rings.

Prof. Herman currently serves as the PIMS Site Director for the University of Regina

M2PI matches graduate students and postdoctoral fellows with industry partners to engage in a two week long collaboration to solve an industrial mathematics challenge. M2PI participants gain valuable skills making them ready to work in non-academic...

In Arnaud's talk, we saw that the 2-dimensional TQFT category is equivalent to the category of commutative Frobenius algebras with isomorphisms. In this sequel to Arnaud's talk, we take a closer look at Frobenius algebras. We will explore their...

If A is an algebra over a field k, and R is an augmented commutative k-algebra, then an R-deformation of A is (intuitively) an R-algebra B whose underlying k-algebra structure is isomorphic to that of A. Two R-deformations of A are considered...

The Workshop on Representation Theory will feature 6-8 one-hour survey lectures by top scholars in the field directed at early-career researchers, graduate students, and senior undergraduates. At the Workshop, our plan is to have three or four of the...
