Algebra Over A Field

It is well known that for finite dimensional algebras, “bounded representation type” implies “finite representation type”; this is the assertion of the First Brauer-Thrall Conjecture (hereafter referred to as Brauer-Thrall I), proved by Roiter [26] (see also [23]). More precisely, it states that if R is a finite dimensional algebra over a field k, such that there is a finite upper bound on the k-dimensions of the finite dimensional indecomposable right R-modules, then up to isomorphism R has only finitely many (finite dimensional) indecomposable right modules. The hypothesis and conclusion are of course left-right symmetric in this situation, because of the duality between finite dimensional left and right R-modules, given by Homk(−, k). Furthermore, it follows from finite representation type that all indecomposable R modules are finite dimensional [25].

In [1], Dowbor, Ringel and Simson consider hereditary artinian rings of finite representation type; it is known that if A is an hereditary artinian algebra of finite representation type, finite-dimensional over a field, then it corresponds to a Dynkin diagram in a natural way; they show that an hereditary artinian ring of finite representation type corresponds to a Coxeter diagram. However, in order to construct an hereditary artinian ring of finite representation type corresponding to a Coxeter diagram that is not Dynkin, they show that it is necessary though not sufficient to find an extension of skew fields such that the left and right dimensions are both finite but are different. No examples of such skew fields were known at the time. In [3], I constructed such extensions, and the main aim of this paper is to extend the methods of that paper to construct an extension of skew fields having all the properties needed to construct an hereditary artinian ring of finite representation type corresponding to the Coxeter diagram I2(5).

Algebra Over A Field

A module is uniserial in case its submodules are linearly ordered by inclusion. A ring R is left (right) serial if it is a direct sum of uniserial left (right) R-modules. A ring R is serial if it is both left and right serial. It is well known that for artinian rings the property of being serial is equivalent to the finitely generated modules being a direct sum of uniserial modules [8]. Results along this line have been generalized to more arbitrary rings [6], [13].This article is concerned with investigating rings whose indecomposable injective modules are uniserial. The following question is considered which was first posed in [4]. If an artinian ring R has all indecomposable injective modules uniserial, does this imply that R is serial? The answer is yes if R is a finite dimensional algebra over a field. In this paper it is shown, provided R modulo its radical is commutative, that R has every left indecomposable injective uniserial implies that R is right serial.

AbstractA module over a finite-dimensional algebra is called a ‘diamond’ if it has a simple top and a simple socle. Using covering theory, the classification of all diamonds for algebras of finite representation type over algebraically closed fields can be reduced to representation-directed algebras. The author proves a criterion referring to the positive roots of the corresponding Tits quadratic form, which makes it easy to check whether a representation-directed algebra has a faithful diamond. Using an implementation of this criterion in the CREP program system on representation theory, he is able to classify all exceptional representation-directed algebras having a faithful diamond. He obtains a list of 157 algebras up to isomorphism and duality. The 52 maximal members of this list are presented at the end of this paper.

Bounded Representation

For A an associative algebra with identity over a field K, [A : K] < ∞, and d an integer, we define g Λ(d) to be the number of inequivalent indecomposable Λ-modules of degree d over K. Following (6), we define Λ to be of finite representation type if . Λis said to be of bounded representation type if there exists d 0 such that g Λ(d) = 0 for d ⩾ d 0; Λ is of unbounded representation type if not of bounded type.

Irreducible Morphisms

We consider A to be an artin algebra. We study the degrees of irreducible morphisms between modules in Auslander–Reiten components Γ having only almost split sequences with at most two indecomposable middle terms, that is, α(Γ) ≤ 2. We prove that if f : X → Y is an irreducible epimorphism of finite left degree with X or Y indecomposable, then there exists a module Z ∈ Γ and a morphism φ ∈ ℜn(Z, X)\ℜn+1(Z, X) for some positive integer n such that fφ = 0. In particular, for such components if A is a finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field and f = (f1, f2)t : X → Y1 ⊕ Y2 is an irreducible epimorphism of finite left degree then we show that dl(f) = dl(f1) + dl(f2). We also characterize the artin algebras of finite representation type with α(ΓA) ≤ 2 in terms of a finite number of irreducible morphisms with finite degree.

Let G be a complex analytic group, and let A be the representation space of a finite-dimensional complex analytic representation of G. We consider the cohomology for G in A, such as would be obtained in the usual way from the complex of holomorphic cochains for G in A. Actually, we shall use a more conceptual categorical definition, which is equivalent to the explicit one by cochains. In the context of finite-dimensional representation theory, nothing substantial is lost by assuming that G is a linear group. Under this assumption, it is the main purpose of this paper to relate the holomorphic cohomology of G to Lie algebra cohomology, and to the rational cohomology, in the sense of [1], of algebraic hulls of G. This is accomplished by using the known structure theory for complex analytic linear groups in combination with certain easily established results concerning the cohomology of semidirect products. The main results are Theorem 4.1 (whose hypothesis is always satisfied by a complex analytic linear group) and Theorems 5.1 and 5.2. These last two theorems show that the usual abundantly used connections between complex analytic representations of complex analytic groups and rational representations of algebraic groups extend fully to the superstructure of cohomology.

AbstractWe examine situations, where representations of a finite-dimensionalF-algebraAdefined over a separable extension fieldK/F, have a unique minimal field of definition. Here the base fieldFis assumed to be a field of dimension ≼1. In particular,Fcould be a finite field ork(t) ork((t)), wherekis algebraically closed. We show that a unique minimal field of definition exists if (a)K/Fis an algebraic extension or (b)Ais of finite representation type. Moreover, in these situations the minimal field of definition is a finite extension ofF. This is not the case ifAis of infinite representation type orFfails to be of dimension ≼1. As a consequence, we compute the essential dimension of the functor of representations of a finite group, generalizing a theorem of Karpenko, Pevtsova and the second author.
