Critical simply connected algebras (Q792427)

For the definitions, the reader is referred to [\textit{K. Bongartz} and \textit{P. Gabriel}, Invent. Math. 65, 331-378 (1982; Zbl 0482.16026)] and [\textit{O. Bretscher} and \textit{P. Gabriel}, Bull. Math. Soc. Fr. 111, 21-40 (1983; Zbl 0527.16021)]. Let g be an admissible grading of a tree T, \(R_ g\) the corresponding simply connected translation quiver, and \(A_ g\) the full subcategory of the mesh category \(k(R_ g)\) (over an algebraically closed field k) supported by the projective points. An algebra A is called critical if it is of infinite representation type, but every proper convex full subalgebra is of finite representation type. The grading g is called critical if \(A_ g\) is critical. The author obtains the following results. Theorem 1. The tree T bears a critical grading if and only if T is an extended Dynkin diagram, i.e. T is of the form \(\tilde D_ n\) for \(n\geq 4\) or \(\tilde E_ m\) for 6\(\leq m\leq 8.\) Theorem 2. The algebras \(A_ g\) obtained by critical gradings coincide with the minimal algebras of infinite representation type with preprojective component of frames \(\tilde D_ n\) and \(\tilde E_ m\) as described by \textit{D. Happel} and \textit{D. Vossieck} [Manuscr. Math. 42, 221-243 (1983; Zbl 0516.16023)].
