  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: International Centre for Mechanical Sciences ((CISM,volume 287))

Abstract

Throughout this paper we use the term algebra to mean finite-dimensional algebra over a fixed algebraically closed field K and the term module to mean finitely generated right module. Algebras, as is usual in representation theory, are assumed to be basic. For any algebra A we will denote by mod A the category of finitely generated A-modules and by ind A the full subcategory of mod A consisting of all indecomposable modules.
