Matrix reductions for artinian rings, and an application to rings of finite representation type
Matrix problems in the form of a lift category are defined and studied in the paper in connection with the investigation of artinian rings of finite representation type. By applying matrix reductions developed in the paper, the author proves that if \(R\) is an artinian ring of finite representation type and \(X\) is an indecomposable right \(R\)-module then the ring \(\text{End}_ R X/\text{rad }\text{End}_ R X\) is isomorphic to the ring \(\text{End}_ R S\) for some simple \(R\)-module \(S\). We recall that a pair \((R,\xi)\) is defined to be a \textit{lift pair} if \(R\) is a ring and \(\xi: 0\to M\to E\to R\to 0\) is an exact sequence of \(R\)- \(R\)-bimodules. The \textit{lift category} \(\xi(R)\) is defined as follows. The objects of \(\xi(R)\) are pairs \((P,e)\) consisting of a projective left \(R\)-module \(P\) and a section \(e\) of the natural surjection \(E\otimes_ R P\to P\) induced by the epimorphism \(E\to R\). The morphisms \((P,e)\to (P',e')\) are the \(R\)-module homomorphisms \(f: P\to P'\) such that \(e'f = (1\otimes f)e\). It is shown in the paper that the lift category can be viewed as a derivation bimodule problem introduced by the author [in Banach Cent. Publ. 26, Part I, 199-222 (1990; Zbl 0734.16004)] (see also Section 17.10 of the reviewer's book [``Linear Representations of Partially Ordered Sets and Vector Space Categories, Algebra Logic Appl. 4, Gordon \& Breach Sci. Publ. (1992)]). It is observed in the paper that the study of the category of left modules over any left perfect ring \(\Lambda\) can be reduced to the study of the lift category \(\xi(R)\), where \(R = \Lambda\times \Lambda\) and \(\xi\) is the exact sequence \[ 0 \to \begin{aligned}\begin{pmatrix} 0 & J\\0 & 0\end{pmatrix}\to\begin{pmatrix}\Lambda & J\\0 & \Lambda\end{pmatrix}\to \begin{pmatrix}\Lambda & 0\\0 & \Lambda\end{pmatrix} \to 0\end{aligned} \] and \(J\) is the Jacobson radical of \(\Lambda\). The lift categories are viewed in the paper as a counterpart of categories of representations of bocses applied successfully in the study of finite dimensional algebras over an algebraically closed field [see Proc. Lond. Math. Soc., III. Ser. 56, 451-483 (1988; Zbl 0661.16026)]. Matrix reductions for lift categories are defined in the paper by applying some of the ideas in the author's papers mentioned above. The reductions provide useful tools for the study of module categories over artinian rings. In particular they preserve the finite representation type.
