Azumaya Algebras #
An Azumaya algebra over a commutative ring R
is a finitely generated, projective
and faithful R-algebra where the tensor product A ⊗[R] Aᵐᵒᵖ
is isomorphic to the
R
-endomorphisms of A via the map f : a ⊗ b ↦ (x ↦ a * x * b.unop)
.
TODO : Add the three more definitions and prove they are equivalent:
· There exists an R
-algebra B
such that B ⊗[R] A
is Morita equivalent to R
;
· Aᵐᵒᵖ ⊗[R] A
is Morita equivalent to R
;
· The center of A
is R
and A
is a separable algebra.
