Two-sided vector spaces
Abstract
Description
We study the structure of two-sided vector spaces over a perfect field $K$. In particular, we give a complete characterization of isomorphism classes of simple two-sided vector spaces which are left finite-dimensional. Using this description, we compute the Quillen $K$-theory of the category of left finite-dimensional, two-sided vector spaces over $K$. We also consider the closely related problem of describing homomorphisms $ϕ:K\to M_n(K)$.
