This book is an introduction to techniques and results in
diagrammatic algebra. It starts with abstract tensors and their
categorifications, presents diagrammatic methods for studying
Frobenius and Hopf algebras, and discusses their relations with
topological quantum field theory and knot theory. The text is
replete with figures, diagrams, and suggestive typography that
allows the reader a glimpse into many higher dimensional processes.
The penultimate chapter summarizes the previous material by
demonstrating how to braid 3- and 4- dimensional manifolds into 5-
and 6-dimensional spaces. The book is accessible to post-qualifier
graduate students, and will also be of interest to algebraists,
topologists and algebraic topologists who would like to incorporate
diagrammatic techniques into their research.
