- Is it possible, for any (or all) N>1, to specify
- f : {1..N}x{1..N} -> E, E subset of G, G a group,
- f one-to-one,
-
- and
-
- c : G-E -> F, F some field,
-
- so as to define
-
- p : NxN matrices over F -> G algebra elements over F
- M -> a : G -> F
-
- by a(g) = Mij when g in E and f(i,j) = g
- a(g) = c(g) when g in G-E
-
- and so that
-
- p(M*M') = p(M)*p(M') for M,M' any two NxN matrices over F
-
- ??

-
- c would preferably range over {0,1}
-
-
- NOTE (a*a')(g) = Sum a(h)a'(h') for a,a' any two G-algebra elements
- hh'=g and h,h',g in G
