Abstract
Researchers Cohn and Umans proposed a framework for fast matrix multiplication algorithms. Their approach is reliant on an application of the Wedderburn-Artin Theorem: a landmark classification result in modern algebra. We show experimental success for algebras whose components all have dimension 1. We advance the Cohn and Umans framework by developing new, extendable tools to couple with their design.
