Given a quiver Q, a field K and two (not necessarily admissible) ideals I, I' in the path algebra KQ, we study the problem when the factor algebras KQ/I and KQ/I' of KQ are isomorphic. Sufficient conditions are given in case Q is a tree extension of a cycle.

We give an example of a representation of the Kronecker quiver for which the closure of the corresponding orbit contains a singularity smoothly equivalent to the isolated singularity of two planes crossing at a point. Therefore this orbit closure is neither Cohen-Macaulay nor unibranch.

We prove that the multiplicity of a simple module as a composition factor in a composition series for a primitive band module over a domestic string algebra is at most two.

We construct bar-invariant $\mathbb{Z}\left[q^{\pm 1/2}\right]$-bases of the quantum cluster algebra of the valued quiver $A_2^{\left(2\right)}$, one of which coincides with the quantum analogue of the basis of the corresponding cluster algebra discussed in P. Sherman, A. Zelevinsky: Positivity and canonical bases in rank 2 cluster algebras of finite and affine types, Moscow Math. J., 4, 2004, 947–974.

Let C be a coalgebra over an arbitrary field K. We show that the study of the category C-Comod of left C-comodules reduces to the study of the category of (co)representations of a certain bicomodule, in case C is a bipartite coalgebra or a coradical square complete coalgebra, that is, C = C₁, the second term of the coradical filtration of C. If C = C₁, we associate with C a K-linear functor ${ℍ}_C:C-Comod\to H_C-Comod$ that restricts to a representation equivalence ${ℍ}_C:C-comod\to H_C-como{d}_{sp}^{•}$, where $H_C$ is a coradical square complete hereditary bipartite...

A class of stratified posets $I{*}_{\varrho }$ is investigated and their incidence algebras $KI{*}_{\varrho }$ are studied in connection with a class of non-shurian vector space categories. Under some assumptions on $I{*}_{\varrho }$ we associate with $I{*}_{\varrho }$ a bound quiver (Q, Ω) in such a way that $KI{*}_{\varrho }\simeq K(Q,\Omega )$. We show that the fundamental group of (Q, Ω) is the free group with two free generators if $I{*}_{\varrho }$ is rib-convex. In this case the universal Galois covering of (Q, Ω) is described. If in addition $I_{\varrho }$ is three-partite a fundamental domain $I^{*+\times }$ of this covering is...

The Cartan matrix of a finite dimensional algebra A is an important combinatorial invariant reflecting frequently structural properties of the algebra and its module category. For example, one of the important features of the modular representation theory of finite groups is the nonsingularity of Cartan matrices of the associated group algebras (Brauer’s theorem). Recently, the class of all tame selfinjective algebras having simply connected Galois coverings and the stable Auslander-Reiten quiver...

The main aim of the paper is to classify the discrete derived categories of bounded complexes of modules over finite dimensional algebras.

We classify the affine varieties of dimension at most 4 which occur as orbit closures with an invariant point in varieties of representations of quivers. Moreover, we show that they are normal and Cohen-Macaulay.

Let $k$ be a field and $A$ a finite-dimensional $k$-algebra of global dimension $\le 2$. We construct a triangulated category ${𝒞}_A$ associated to $A$ which, if $A$ is hereditary, is triangle equivalent to the cluster category of $A$. When ${𝒞}_A$ is Hom-finite, we prove that it is 2-CY and endowed with a canonical cluster-tilting object. This new class of categories contains some of the stable categories of modules over a preprojective algebra studied by Geiss-Leclerc-Schröer and by Buan-Iyama-Reiten-Scott. Our results also...

Starting from an arbitrary cluster-tilting object $T$ in a 2-Calabi–Yau triangulated category over an algebraically closed field, as in the setting of Keller and Reiten, we define, for each object $L$, a fraction $X(T,L)$ using a formula proposed by Caldero and Keller. We show that the map taking $L$ to $X(T,L)$ is a cluster character, i.e. that it satisfies a certain multiplication formula. We deduce that it induces a bijection, in the finite and the acyclic case, between the indecomposable rigid objects of the cluster...

We develop a technique for the study of K-coalgebras and their representation types by applying a quiver technique and topologically pseudocompact modules over pseudocompact K-algebras in the sense of Gabriel [17], [19]. A definition of tame comodule type and wild comodule type for K-coalgebras over an algebraically closed field K is introduced. Tame and wild coalgebras are studied by means of their finite-dimensional subcoalgebras. A weak version of the tame-wild dichotomy theorem of Drozd [13]...
