We prove that the number of terms in the middle of an almost split sequence in the module category of a cycle-finite artin algebra is bounded by 5.
We define numbers of the type Oj(N) and Ej(N) and the corresponding integer sequences. We prove that these integer sequences, e.g., SO(N) and SE(N) correspond to the number of odd and even walks in complete graphs. We then prove that there is a unique family of graphs which have exactly the same sequence of odd walks between connected nodes and of even walks between pairs of nodes at distance two, respectively. These graphs are obtained as the Kronecker product. We show that they are the incidence graphs of block designs, are distance-regular and Ramanujan graphs.
We describe the structure of module categories of finite dimensional algebras over an algebraically closed field for which the cycles of nonzero nonisomorphisms between indecomposable finite dimensional modules are finite (do not belong to the infinite Jacobson radical of the module category). Moreover, geometric and homological properties of these module categories are exhibited.
Let k be an algebraically closed field and A be a finite-dimensional associative basic k-algebra of the form A=kQ/I where Q is a quiver without oriented cycles or double arrows and I is an admissible ideal of kQ. We consider roots of the Tits form q_A, in particular in case q_A is weakly non-negative. We prove that for any maximal omnipresent root v of q_A, there exists an indecomposable A-module X such that v is the dimension vector of X. Moreover, if A is strongly simply connected, the existence of a maximal omnipresent root of q_A implies that A is tame of tilted type.
