On indecomposable \(\tau\)-rigid modules for cluster-tilted algebras of tame type (Q2419482)

\textit{S. Fomin} and \textit{A. Zelevinsky} [J. Am. Math. Soc. 15, No. 2, 497--529 (2002; Zbl 1021.16017)] introduced the denominator vector for each cluster monomial with respect to a given cluster and formulated the so-called denominator conjecture: different cluster monomials have different denominator vectors. In this paper, the authors consider the weak version of denominator conjecture: different cluster variables have different denominator vectors with respect to a given cluster and proved the weak version for a cluster algebra of tame type. Let \(Q\) be a connected extended Dynkin quiver and \(\mathcal{A}(Q)\) the associated cluster algebra of tame type. Denote by \(\mathcal{C}_Q\) the cluster category of \(Q\). For a basic cluster-tilting object \(T\in\mathcal{C}_Q\), \(\Gamma=\textrm{End}_{{C}_Q}(T)^{\mathrm{op}}\) is called a cluster-tilted algebra of tame type. The authors prove that different indecomposable \(\tau\)-rigid \(\Gamma\)-modules have different dimension vectors. There is a bijection between the non-initial cluster variables of \(\mathcal{A}(Q)\) and the indecomposable \(\tau\)-rigid \(\Gamma\)-modules. Hence the authors prove the main result of this paper: different cluster variables of \(\mathcal{A}(Q)\) have different denominator vectors with respect to a given cluster. The proof relies on the investigation of \textit{O. Iyama} and \textit{Y. Yoshino}'s construction of subfactors for cluster categories [Invent. Math. 172, No. 1, 117--168 (2008; Zbl 1140.18007)].
