Summary

Decoding Algebras: Categories and Representation Theory

This book offers a self-contained exploration of how category theory can be applied to understand the representation theory of algebras. It emphasizes 2-categorical techniques, including 2-categorical covering theory.

While a background in linear algebra and elementary ring theory is sufficient, some familiarity with representations of quivers and basic category theory will be beneficial.
