Special Session on Tensor Categories and Representation Theory I
Tensor categories originate in the work of Deligne as an abstraction of the properties of the categories of rational representations of an algebraic group. In the past decade, the abstract study of tensor categories has shed new light on classical problems in representation theory. This is in part thanks to the recent construction of many new examples of tensor categories going beyond the classical representation theoretic ones.
