Abstract

We investigate the generalized Kronecker algebra 𝒦 r = kΓ r with r ≥ 3 arrows. Given a regular component 𝒞 of the Auslander-Reiten quiver of 𝒦 r , we show that the quasi-rank rk(𝒞) ∈ ℤ≤1 can be described almost exactly as the distance 𝒲(𝒞) ∈ ℕ0 between two non-intersecting cones in 𝒞, given by modules with the equal images and the equal kernels property; more precisley, we show that the two numbers are linked by the inequality

$$-\mathcal{W}(\mathcal{C}) \leq \text{rk}(\mathcal{C}) \leq - \mathcal{W}(\mathcal{C}) + 3.$$

Utilizing covering theory, we construct for each n ∈ ℕ0 a bijection φ n between the field k and {𝒞∣𝒞 regular component, 𝒲(𝒞) = n}. As a consequence, we get new results about the number of regular components of a fixed quasi-rank.
