We define for each group G the skein algebra of G. We show how it is related to the Kauffman bracket skein modules. We prove that skein algebras of abelian groups are isomorphic to symmetric subalgebras of corresponding group rings. Moreover, we show that, for any abelian group G, homomorphisms from the skein algebra of G to C correspond exactly to traces of SL(2, C)-representations of G. We al...

in this paper, we nd the relationships between module contractibility of abanach algebra and its ideals. we also prove that module contractibility ofa banach algebra is equivalent to module contractibility of its module uniti-zation. finally, we show that when a maximal group homomorphic image ofan inverse semigroup s with the set of idempotents e is nite, the moduleprojective tensor product ...
