We introduce the algebras satisfying the $(ℬ,n)$ condition. If $\Lambda$, $\Gamma$ are algebras satisfying the $(ℬ,n)$, $(ℰ,m)$ condition, respectively, we give a construction of $(m+n)$-almost split sequences in some subcategories ${(ℬ\otimes ℰ)}^{(i_0,j_0)}$ of $mod(\Lambda \otimes \Gamma )$ by tensor products and mapping cones. Moreover, we prove that the tensor product algebra $\Lambda \otimes \Gamma$ satisfies the $({(ℬ\otimes ℰ)}^{(i_0,j_0)},n+m)$ condition for some integers $i_0$, $j_0$; this construction unifies and extends the work of A. Pasquali (2017), (2019).

We compute a complete set of nonisomorphic minimal Auslander generators for the exterior algebra in two variables.

We prove that the component quiver ${\Sigma }_A$ of a connected self-injective artin algebra A of infinite representation type is fully cyclic, that is, every finite set of components of the Auslander-Reiten quiver ${\Gamma }_A$ of A lies on a common oriented cycle in ${\Sigma }_A$.

Let $Q$ be a finite union of Dynkin quivers, $G\subseteq \mathrm{Aut}\left(𝕜Q\right)$ a finite abelian group, $\widehat{Q}$ the generalized McKay quiver of $(Q,G)$ and ${\Gamma }_Q$ the Auslander-Reiten quiver of $𝕜Q$. Then $G$ acts functorially on the quiver ${\Gamma }_Q$. We show that the Auslander-Reiten quiver of $𝕜\widehat{Q}$ coincides with the generalized McKay quiver of $({\Gamma }_Q,G)$.

The Dynkin algebras are the hereditary artin algebras of finite representation type. The paper determines the number of complete exceptional sequences for any Dynkin algebra. Since the complete exceptional sequences for a Dynkin algebra of Dynkin type Δ correspond bijectively to the maximal chains in the lattice of non-crossing partitions of type Δ, the calculations presented here may also be considered as a categorification of the corresponding result for non-crossing partitions.

Auslander’s representation dimension measures how far a finite dimensional algebra is away from being of finite representation type. In [1], M. Auslander proved that a finite dimensional algebra A is of finite representation type if and only if the representation dimension of A is at most 2. Recently, R. Rouquier proved that there are finite dimensional algebras of an arbitrarily large finite representation dimension. One of the exciting open problems is to show that all finite dimensional algebras...

A ring Λ satisfies the Generalized Auslander-Reiten Condition ( ) if for each Λ-module M with $Ex{t}^i(M,M\oplus \Lambda )=0$ for all i > n the projective dimension of M is at most n. We prove that this condition is satisfied by all n-symmetric algebras of quasitilted type.

Using geometrical methods, Huisgen-Zimmermann showed that if M is a module with simple top, then M has no proper degeneration $M{<}_{deg}N$ such that ${}^{t}M{/}^{t+1}M{\simeq }^{t}N{/}^{t+1}N$ for all t. Given a module M with square-free top and a projective cover P, she showed that $di{m}_{k}Hom(M,M)=di{m}_{k}Hom(P,M)$ if and only if M has no proper degeneration $M{<}_{deg}N$ where M/M ≃ N/N. We prove here these results in a more general form, for hom-order instead of degeneration-order, and we prove them algebraically. The results of Huisgen-Zimmermann follow as consequences from our results....

Let A be a finite-dimensional algebra over a field k. We discuss the existence of trisections (mod₊ A,mod₀ A,mod₋ A) of the category of finitely generated modules mod A satisfying exactness, standardness, separation and adjustment conditions. Many important classes of algebras admit trisections. We describe a construction of algebras admitting a trisection of their module categories and, in special cases, we describe the structure of the components of the Auslander-Reiten quiver lying in mod₀ A.

We prove that for any representation-finite algebra A (in fact, finite locally bounded k-category), the universal covering F: Ã → A is either a Galois covering or an almost Galois covering of integral type, and F admits a degeneration to the standard Galois covering F̅: Ã→ Ã/G, where $G=\Pi \left({\Gamma }_A\right)$ is the fundamental group of ${\Gamma }_A$. It is shown that the class of almost Galois coverings F: R → R’ of integral type, containing the series of examples from our earlier paper [Bol. Soc. Mat. Mexicana 17 (2011)], behaves...
