    did some substantial edits on this entry:

    • gave it more of an Idea-section,

    • tried to streamline the statement of the lemma

    • spelled out the proof,

    • added a discussion explaining how this is about irreps forming a (de-)categorified orthogonal/orthonormal linear basis of the representation ring.

    • (edited Oct 1st 2018)

    slightly expanded the section on Generalizations and variants:

    Made the pointer to Schur’s lemma for simple objects in abelian categories more recognizable, and added pointer to Schur’s lemma for Bridgeland-stable objects

    And he removed it in rev 12. Hereby.

    Thanks for the heads-up. I forget why I went to put that condition in.

    Slightly tweaked text and formatting of formulas at various places, for beautification.
