"Quivers and Hopf algebras"

Dr. Hua-Lin Huang
ICTP

Abstract: The algebraic structure of Hopf algebras is a unification of 
the
two classical algebraic structures, namely groups and Lie algebras. I
investigate Hopf algebras via combinatorics. I report some recent 
progress
on the classification and representation theory of finite dimensional
pointed (or, dually basic) Hopf algebras which are analogous to groups 
and
Lie algebras most.
