Abstract
This paper aims to initiate a study of the representation theory of representation-finite artin algebras in terms of the nilpotency of the radical of their module category. Firstly, we shall calculate this nilpotency explicitly for hereditary algebras of type \(\mathbb {A}_n\) and for Nakayama algebras. Surprisingly, this nilpotency for a given algebra coincides with its Loewy length if and only if the algebra is a hereditary Nakayama algebra. Secondly, we shall find all artin algebras for which this nilpotency is equal to any given positive integer up to four and describe completely their module category.
期刊介绍:
Algebras and Representation Theory features carefully refereed papers relating, in its broadest sense, to the structure and representation theory of algebras, including Lie algebras and superalgebras, rings of differential operators, group rings and algebras, C*-algebras and Hopf algebras, with particular emphasis on quantum groups.
The journal contains high level, significant and original research papers, as well as expository survey papers written by specialists who present the state-of-the-art of well-defined subjects or subdomains. Occasionally, special issues on specific subjects are published as well, the latter allowing specialists and non-specialists to quickly get acquainted with new developments and topics within the field of rings, algebras and their applications.
