For representation theory\, these algebras offer a sneaky path toward solving difficult problems by understanding the ways that graph-theoretic diagrams combine. The only background I will assume is some familiarity with linear algebra\, so if you like (or at least tolerate) playing around with pretty combinatorial objects\, I hope you’ll attend!
