Abstract

Within the last five years, division algebras have emerged as the perfect tool for coding for wireless communication with multiple antennas. In this talk we will describe some key features of division algebras and then describe how they are applied to wireless communication. Along the way, we will touch on questions on algebraic lattices that arise in this application.
