A note on stable equivalences of Morita type

We investigate when an exact functor --Γ which induces a stable equivalence is part of a stable equivalence of Morita type. If Λ and Γ are finite dimensional algebras over a field k whose semisimple quotients are separable, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for this to be the case. This generalizes a result of Rickard’s for self-injective algebras. As a corollary, we see that the two functors given by tensoring with the bimodules in a stable equivalence of Morita type are right and left adjoints of one another, provided that these bimodules are indecomposable. This fact has many interesting consequences for stable equivalences of Morita type. In particular, we show that a stable equivalence of Morita type induces another stable equivalence of Morita type between certain self-injective algebras associated to the original algebras. We further show that when there exists a stable equivalence of Morita type between Λ and Γ, it is possible to replace Λ by a Morita equivalent k-algebra Δ such that Γ is a subring of Δ and the induction and restriction functors induce inverse stable equivalences.     

Derived equivalences of selfinjective algebras preserve singularities

We prove that the derived equivalences (more generally the stable equivalences of Morita type) of finite dimensional selfinjective algebras over algebraically closed fields preserve the types of singularities in the orbit closures of module varieties. As an application, we obtain that the orbit closures in the module varieties of the Brauer tree algebras are normal and Cohen-Macaulay.

INVARIANTS UNDER STABLE EQUIVALENCES OF MORITA TYPE

The aim of this article is to study some invariants of associative algebras under stable equivalences of Morita type.First of all,we show that,if two finite-dimensional selfinjective k-algebras are sta...     

Adjoint functors and equivalences of subcategories

For any left R-module P with endomorphism ring S, the adjoint pair of functors P⊗_S− and Hom_R(P,−) induce an equivalence between the categories of P-static R-modules and P-adstatic S-modules. In particular, this setting subsumes the Morita theory of equivalences between module categories and the theory of tilting modules. In this paper we consider, more generally, any adjoint pair of covariant functors between complete and cocomplete Abelian categories and describe equivalences induced by them. Our results subsume the situations mentioned above but also equivalences between categories of comodules.     

Classifying tame blocks and related algebras up to stable equivalences of Morita type

We contribute to the classification of finite dimensional algebras under stable equivalence of Morita type. More precisely we give a classification of Erdmann’s algebras of dihedral, semi-dihedral and quaternion type and obtain as byproduct the validity of the Auslander-Reiten conjecture for stable equivalences of Morita type between two algebras, one of which is of dihedral, semi-dihedral or quaternion type.     

Construction of stable equivalences of Morita type for finite-dimensional algebras I

In the representation theory of finite groups, the stable equivalence of Morita type plays an important role. For general finite-dimensional algebras, this notion is still of particular interest. However, except for the class of self-injective algebras, one does not know much on the existence of such equivalences between two finite-dimensional algebras; in fact, even a non-trivial example is not known. In this paper, we provide two methods to produce new stable equivalences of Morita type from given ones. The main results are Corollary 1.2 and Theorem 1.3. Here the algebras considered are not necessarily self-injective. As a consequence of our constructions, we give an example of a stable equivalence of Morita type between two algebras of global dimension , such that one of them is quasi-hereditary and the other is not. This shows that stable equivalences of Morita type do not preserve the quasi-heredity of algebras. As another by-product, we construct a Morita equivalence inside each given stable equivalence of Morita type between algebras and . This leads not only to a general formulation of a result by Linckelmann (1996), but also to a nice correspondence of some torsion pairs in -mod with those in -mod if both and are symmetric algebras. Moreover, under the assumption of symmetric algebras we can get a new stable equivalence of Morita type. Finally, we point out that stable equivalences of Morita type are preserved under separable extensions of ground fields.

     

Constructions of stable equivalences of Morita type for finite dimensional algebras II

Suppose k is a field. Let A and B be two finite dimensional k-algebras such that there is a stable equivalence of Morita type between A and B. In this paper, we prove that (1) if A and B are representation-finite then their Auslander algebras are stably equivalent of Morita type; (2) The n-th Hochschild homology groups of A and B are isomorphic for all n≥1. A new proof is also provided for Hochschild cohomology groups of self-injective algebras under a stable equivalence of Morita type.     

On a Lift of an Individual Stable Equivalence to a Standard Derived Equivalence for Representation-Finite Self-injective Algebras

We shall show that every stable equivalence (functor) between representation-finite self-injective algebras not of type (D _3m ,s/3,1) with m2, 3s lifts to a standard derived equivalence. This implies that all stable equivalences between these algebras are of Morita type.     

Orbifolds and groupoids

We define a 2-category structure (Pre-Orb) on the category of reduced complex orbifold atlases. We construct a 2-functor F from (Pre-Orb) to the 2-category (Grp) of proper étale effective groupoid objects over the complex manifolds. Both on (Pre-Orb) and (Grp) there are natural equivalence relations on objects: (a natural extension of) equivalence of orbifold atlases on (Pre-Orb) and Morita equivalence in (Grp). We prove that F induces a bijection between the equivalence classes of its source and target.     

Derived Equivalences of Actions of a Category

Let $\mathbb{k}$ be a commutative ring and I a category. As a generalization of a $\mathbb{k}$ -category with a (pseudo) action of a group we consider a family of $\mathbb{k}$ -categories with a (pseudo, lax, or oplax) action of I, namely an oplax functor from I to the 2-category of small $\mathbb{k}$ -categories. We investigate derived equivalences of those oplax functors, and establish a Morita type theorem for them. This gives a base of investigations of derived equivalences of Grothendieck constructions of those oplax functors.     

Galois representations,Mumford-Tate groups and good reduction of abelian varieties

Let K be a number field and A an abelian variety over K. We are interested in the following conjecture of Morita: if the Mumford-Tate group of A does not contain unipotent -rational points then A has potentially good reduction at any discrete place of K. The Mumford-Tate group is an object of analytical nature whereas having good reduction is an arithmetical notion, linked to the ramification of Galois representations. This conjecture has been proved by Morita for particular abelian varieties with many endomorphisms (called of PEL type). Noot obtained results for abelian varieties without nontrivial endomorphisms (Mumfords example, not of PEL type). We give new results for abelian varieties not of PEL type.An erratum to this article can be found at     

Equivalences induced by graded bimodules

Let k be a commutative ringG a finite groupR and S fully G-graded k-algebras. In this paper we investigate Morita equivalences, derived equivalences and stable equivalences of Morita type between R and S, which are induced by G-graded R, 5-bimodules or complexes of G-graded bimodules. Such equivalences occur naturally in the case of group algebras in certain reduction steps for Broue's conjecture, and we show how they can be lifted from equivalences between R ₁ and S ₁.     

Graded polynomial identities and codimensions: Computing the exponential growth

Let G be a finite abelian group and A a G-graded algebra over a field of characteristic zero. This paper is devoted to a quantitative study of the graded polynomial identities satisfied by A. We study the asymptotic behavior of , n=1,2,…, the sequence of graded codimensions of A and we prove that if A satisfies an ordinary polynomial identity, exists and is an integer. We give an explicit way of computing such integer by proving that it equals the dimension of a suitable finite dimension semisimple G×Z₂-graded algebra related to A.     

Cocycle deformations and Galois objects for semisimple Hopf algebras of dimension p3 and pq2

Let p and q be distinct prime numbers. We study the Galois objects and cocycle deformations of the noncommutative, noncocommutative, semisimple Hopf algebras of odd dimension $p^3$ and of dimension $p{q}^2$. We obtain that the $p+1$ non-isomorphic self-dual semisimple Hopf algebras of dimension $p^3$ classified by Masuoka have no non-trivial cocycle deformations, extending his previous results for the 8-dimensional Kac–Paljutkin Hopf algebra. This is done as a consequence of the classification of categorical Morita equivalence classes among semisimple Hopf algebras of odd dimension $p^3$, established by the third-named author in an appendix.     

Multifraction reduction IV: Padding and Artin–Tits monoids of sufficiently large type

We investigate the padded version of reduction, an extension of multifraction reduction as defined in arXiv:1606.08991, and connect it both with ordinary reduction and with the so-called Property H. As an application, we show that all Artin–Tits groups of sufficiently large type satisfy some weakened version Conjecture A^padded of Conjecture A, thus showing that the reduction approach is relevant for these groups.     

Graded Brauer tree algebras

In this paper we construct non-negative gradings on a basic Brauer tree algebra A_Γ corresponding to an arbitrary Brauer tree Γ of type (m,e). We do this by transferring gradings via derived equivalence from a basic Brauer tree algebra A_S, whose tree is a star with the exceptional vertex in the middle, to A_Γ. The grading on A_S comes from the tight grading given by the radical filtration. To transfer gradings via derived equivalence we use tilting complexes constructed by taking Green’s walk around Γ (cf. Schaps and Zakay-Illouz (2001) [17]). By computing endomorphism rings of these tilting complexes we get graded algebras.We also compute , the group of outer automorphisms that fix the isomorphism classes of simple A_Γ-modules, where Γ is an arbitrary Brauer tree, and we prove that there is unique grading on A_Γ up to graded Morita equivalence and rescaling.     

On the torsion theories of Morita equivalent rings

We generalize the well-known fact that for a pair of Morita equivalent ringsR andS their maximal rings of quotients are again Morita equivalent: If _n (M) denotes the torsion theory cogenerated by the direct sum of the firstn+1 injective modules forming part of the minimal injective resolution ofM then _n (R)= _n (S) where is the category equivalenceR-ModS-Mod. Consequently the localized ringsR _{n (R)} andS n _(S) are Morita equivalent.     

Stacks of Algebras and Their Homology

For any increasing function which takes only finitely many distinct values, a connected finite dimensional algebra is constructed, with the property that for all ; here is the -generated finitistic dimension of . The stacking technique developed for this construction of homological examples permits strong control over the higher syzygies of -modules in terms of the algebras serving as layers.

The second author was partially supported by a grant from the National Science Foundation.     

On primitive ideals

We extend two well-known results on primitive ideals in enveloping algebras of semisimple Lie algebras, the Irreducibility theorem for associated varieties and Duflo theorem on primitive ideals, to much wider classes of algebras. Our general version of the Irreducibility Theorem says that if A is a positively filtered associative algebra such that gr A is a commutative Poisson algebra with finitely many symplectic leaves, then the associated variety of any primitive ideal in A is the closure of a single connected symplectic leaf. Our general version of the Duflo theorem says that if A is an algebra with a triangular structure, see § 2, then any primitive ideal in A is the annihilator of a simple highest weight module. Applications to symplectic reflection algebras and Cherednik algebras are discussed.
