Quasi-Frobenius algebra

Quasi-Frobenius algebra

Definition

Recall that an algebra is a Frobenius algebra if its left regular representation L(A)L(A) is isomorphic to its right regular representation R(A)R(A). For quasi-Frobenius algebras, this isomorphism is weakened.

Definition

An algebra AA is called a quasi-Frobenius algebra if the isomorphism classes of idecomposable components of its left-regular representation L(A)L(A) matches those of its right-regular representation R(A)R(A).
