The tame dimension vectors for trees

We consider representations of quivers over an algebraically closed field K. A dimension vector of a quiver is called hypercritical, if there is an m-parameter family of indecomposable representations for the dimension vector with m?2, but every family of representations for all smaller dimension vectors depends on a single parameter. We characterise the hypercritical dimension vectors for trees via their Tits forms and those of their decompositions and present the complete list of the hypercritical dimension vectors.Finally, this leads to a combinatorial classification of the tame dimension vectors for trees which is also given by the Tits forms.     

The number of the Gabriel-Roiter measures admitting no direct predecessors over a wild quiver

A famous result by Drozd says that a finite-dimensional representation-infinite algebra is of either tame or wild representation type. But one has to make assumption on the ground field. The Gabriel-Roiter measure might be an alternative approach to extend these concepts of tame and wild to arbitrary Artin algebras. In particular, the infiniteness of the number of GR segments, i.e. sequences of Gabriel-Roiter measures which are closed under direct predecessors and successors, might relate to the wildness of Artin algebras. As the first step, we are going to study the wild quiver with three vertices, labeled by 1, 2 and 3, and one arrow from 1 to 2 and two arrows from 2 to 3. The Gabriel-Roiter submodules of the indecomposable preprojective modules and quasi-simple modules τ⁻ⁱM, i≥0 are described, where M is a Kronecker module and τ=DTr is the Auslander-Reiten translation. Based on these calculations, the existence of infinitely many GR segments will be shown. Moreover, it will be proved that there are infinitely many Gabriel-Roiter measures admitting no direct predecessors.     

Cluster-concealed algebras

The cluster-tilted algebras have been introduced by Buan, Marsh and Reiten, they are the endomorphism rings of cluster-tilting objects T in cluster categories; we call such an algebra cluster-concealed in case T is obtained from a preprojective tilting module. For example, all representation-finite cluster-tilted algebras are cluster-concealed. If C is a representation-finite cluster-tilted algebra, then the indecomposable C-modules are shown to be determined by their dimension vectors. For a general cluster-tilted algebra C, we are going to describe the dimension vectors of the indecomposable C-modules in terms of the root system of a quadratic form. The roots may have both positive and negative coordinates and we have to take absolute values.     

Compactness of Schrödinger semigroups with unbounded below potentials

By using the super Poincaré inequality of a Markov generator L₀ on L²(μ) over a σ-finite measure space (E,F,μ), the Schrödinger semigroup generated by L₀−V for a class of (unbounded below) potentials V is proved to be L²(μ)-compact provided μ(V?N)<∞ for all N>0. This condition is sharp at least in the context of countable Markov chains, and considerably improves known ones on, e.g., Rd under the condition that V(x)→∞ as |x|→∞. Concrete examples are provided to illustrate the main result.     

Orthoscalar quiver representations corresponding to extended Dynkin graphs in the category of Hilbert spaces

It is known that finitely representable quivers correspond to Dynkin graphs and tame quivers correspond to extended Dynkin graphs. In an earlier paper, the authors generalized some of these results to locally scalar (later renamed to orthoscalar) quiver representations in Hilbert spaces; in particular, an analog of the Gabriel theorem was proved. In this paper, we study the relationships between indecomposable representations in the category of orthoscalar representations and indecomposable representations in the category of all quiver representations. For the quivers corresponding to extended Dynkin graphs, the indecomposable orthoscalar representations are classified up to unitary equivalence.     

Tame concealed algebras and cluster quivers of minimal infinite type

The well-known list of Happel-Vossieck of tame concealed algebras in terms of quivers with relations, and the list of A. Seven of minimal infinite cluster quivers are compared. There is a 1-1 correspondence between the items in these lists, and we explain how an item in one list naturally corresponds to an item in the other list. A central tool for understanding this correspondence is the theory of cluster-tilted algebras.     

On module variety dimension for coverings and degenerations of algebras

Given a pair of G-covering functors F¹:R→R₁ and F⁰:R→R₀ such that F⁰ is a Galois covering, the inequality for all z,t, of the dimensions of the first kind module sets under some assumptions is proved (Theorem 2.2). The result is applied to show the equality of the module variety dimensions for some special degenerations of algebras. Certain consequences for preserving wild and tame representation types by G-covering functors are also presented (Theorems 2.4 and 3.1).     

On tame weakly symmetric algebras having only periodic modules

We classify (up to Morita equivalence) all tame weakly symmetric finite dimensional algebras over an algebraically closed field having simply connected Galois coverings, nonsingular Cartan matrices and the stable Auslander-Reiten quivers consisting only of tubes. In particular, we prove that these algebras have at most four simple modules.Received: 25 February 2002     

On minimal disjoint degenerations for preprojective representations of quivers

We derive a root test for degenerations as described in the title. In the case of Dynkin quivers this leads to a conceptual proof of the fact that the codimension of a minimal disjoint degeneration is always one. For Euclidean quivers, it enables us to show a periodic behaviour. This reduces the classification of all these degenerations to a finite problem that we have solved with the aid of a computer. It turns out that the codimensions are bounded by two. Somewhat surprisingly, the regular and preinjective modules play an essential role in our proofs.

     

Plurisubharmonic domination in Banach spaces

We show that if X is a Banach space with a Schauder basis, Ω⊂X is a pseudoconvex open subset, and u:Ω→(−∞,∞) is a locally bounded function, then there is a continuous plurisubharmonic function w:Ω→(−∞,∞) with u(x)?w(x) for all x∈Ω. This has many applications to analytic cohomology of complex Banach manifolds.     

Degenerations for indecomposable modules in almost cyclic coherent Auslander-Reiten components

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of degeneration M≤_degN for arbitrary modules M, N of the same dimension from the additive category of a generalized standard almost cyclic coherent component of the Auslander-Reiten quiver of finite-dimensional algebra.     

The N = 1 quivers of types An and Dn have finite representation type

We show that under certain conditions, the N = 1 types A and D quivers are of finite representation type.     

Grothendieck groups of unbounded complexes of finitely generated modules

Let Λ be a left Artinian ring, D⁺(mod Λ) (resp., D⁻(mod Λ), D(mod Λ)) the derived category of bounded below complexes (resp., bounded above complexes, unbounded complexes) of finitely generated left Λ-modules. We show that the Grothendieck groups K₀(D⁺(mod Λ)), K₀(D⁻(mod Λ)) and K₀(D(mod Λ)) are trivial. Received: 7 April 2005     

The Schwinger cocycle on algebras with unbounded operators

In this article, we describe a class of algebras with unbounded operators on which the Schwinger cocycle extends. For this, we replace a space of bounded operators commonly used in the literature by some space of (maybe unbounded) tame operators, in particular by spaces of pseudo-differential operators, acting on the space of sections of a vector bundle E→M. We study some particular examples which we hope interesting or instructive. The case of classical and log-polyhomogeneous pseudo-differential operators is studied, because it carries other cocycles, defined with renormalized traces of pseudo-differential operators, that are some generalizations of the Khesin-Kravchenko-Radul cocycle. The present construction furnishes a simple proof of an expected result: The cohomology class of these cocycles are the same as cohomology class of the Schwinger cocycle. When M=S¹, we show that the Schwinger cocycle is non-trivial on many algebras of pseudo-differential operators (these operators need not to be classical or bounded). These two results complete the work and extend the results of a previous work [J.-P. Magnot, Renormalized traces and cocycles on the algebra of S¹-pseudo-differential operators, Lett. Math. Phys. 75 (2) (2006) 111-127]. When dim(M)>1, we furnish a new example of sign operator which could suggest that the framework of pseudo-differential operators is not adapted to all the cases. On this example, we have to work on some algebras of tame operators, in order to show that the Schwinger cocycle has a non-vanishing cohomology class.     

On the minor-minimal 3-connected matroids having a fixed minor

Let N be a minor of a 3-connected matroid M such that no proper 3-connected minor of M has N as a minor. This paper proves a bound on |E(M)−E(N)| that is sharp when N is connected.     

Singularities in derived categories

Let A be a finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field k and let M and N be two complexes in the bounded derived category D^b(A) of finitely generated A-modules. Together with Alexander Zimmermann we have defined a notion of degeneration for derived categories. We say that M degenerates to N if there is a complex Z and an exact triangle N→M⊕Z→Z→N[1]. In this paper we define and study the type of singularity at every degeneration in the bounded derived categrory.     

Vectorspace categories immersed in directed components

It is known that, given a tame algebra Λ, the Tits form qΛ is weakly non negative

Moreover, the converse has been shown for some families of algebras, but it is not true in general. The purpose of this work is to show that for certain wild vectorspace categories K = Hom(M,B - mod) where B is tame and M is an indecomposable B-module, we have qB[M] strongly indefinite. This gives partial converses of the above theorem.     

On the structure of periodic modules over tame algebras

We describe the structure of stable tubes in the Auslander-Reiten quivers of tame algebras formed by indecomposable modules which do not lie on infinite short cycles. In particular, we prove that all algebras whose module categories have no infinite short cycles are of linear growth.

     

Static Subcategories of the Module Category of a Finite-Dimensional Hereditary Algebra

Let k be a field, Λ a finite-dimensional hereditary k-algebra, and modΛ the category of all finite-dimensional Λ-modules. We are going to characterize the representation type of Λ (tame or wild) in terms of the possible subcategories statM of all M-static modules, where M is an indecomposable Λ-module.
