Abstract: We give a geometric model for a tube category in terms of homotopy classes of oriented arcs in an annulus with marked points on its boundary. In particular, we interpret the dimensions of extension groups of degree 1 between indecomposable objects in terms of negative geometric intersection numbers between corresponding arcs, giving a geometric interpretation of the description of an extension group in the cluster category of a tube as a symmetrized version of the extension group in the tube. We show that a similar result holds for finite dimensional representations of the linearly oriented quiver of type A-double-infinity.

Review text

Let \(\mathcal T_n\) be a tube of rank \(n\), the category of nilpotent finite dimensional quiver representations of an oriented \(n\)-cycle over a field, and let \(\mathcal C_n\) be the associated cluster category. For two indecomposable objects \(A,B\) of \(\mathcal T_n\), the extension group in the triangulated category \(\mathcal C_n\) is given by the formula \(\text{Ext}^1_{\mathcal C_n}(A,B)\cong\text{Ext}^1_{\mathcal T_n}(A,B)\oplus \text{Ext}^1_{\mathcal T_n}(B,A)^*\). The authors give a geometric interpretation of this formula by representing the indecomposables of \(\mathcal T_n\) by arcs in an annulus. Namely, they show that the dimension of \(\text{Ext}^1_{\mathcal T_n}(A,B)\) is the negative intersection number of the corresponding arcs in the annulus. A similar result holds for \(\mathbb A_\infty^\infty\).
