In this paper we evaluate Chebyshev polynomials of the second-kind on a class of symmetric integer matrices, namely on adjacency matrices of simply laced Dynkin and extended Dynkin diagrams. As an application of these results we explicitly calculate minimal projective resolutions of simple modules of symmetric algebras with radical cube zero that are of finite and tame representation type.
We explicitly calculate a projective bimodule resolution for a special biserial algebra giving rise to the Hecke algebra H_q(S_4) when q=-1. We then determine the dimensions of the Hochschild cohomology groups.
We give a basis for the Hochschild cohomology ring of tame Hecke algebras. We then show that the Hochschild cohomology ring modulo nilpotence is a finitely generated algebra of Krull dimension 2, and describe the support varieties of modules for these algebras. As a consequence we obtain the result that the Hochschild cohomology ring modulo nilpotence of a Hecke algebra has Krull dimension 1 if the algebra is of finite type and has Krull dimension 2 if the algebra is of tame type.
We show that for general linear groups ${\rm GL}_n(q)$ as well as for $q$-Schur algebras the knowledge of the modular Alvis-Curtis duality over fields of characteristic $\ell$, $\ell \nmid q$, is equivalent to the knowledge of the decomposition numbers.
We obtain the structure of weight 2 blocks and [2:1]-pairs of q-Schur algebras, and compute explicitly the modular Alvis-Curtis duality for weight 2 blocks of finite general linear groups in non-defining characteristic.
Peach introduced rhombal algebras associated to quivers given by tilings of the plane by rhombi. We develop general techniques to analyse rhombal algebras, including a filtration by what we call rhombus modules. We introduce a way to relate the infinite-dimensional rhombal algebra corresponding to a complete tiling of the plane to finite-dimensional algebras corresponding to finite portions of the tiling. Throughout, we apply our general techniques to the special case of the Rauzy tiling, which is built in stages reflecting an underlying self-similarity. Exploiting this self-similar structure allows us to uncover interesting features of the associated finite-dimensional algebras, including some of the tree classes in the stable Auslander-Reiten quiver.
