Abstract: These are the notes for a course on representations of quivers for second year students in Paderborn in summer 2007. My aim was to provide a basic introduction without using any advanced methods. It turns out that a good knowledge of linear algebra is sufficient for proving Gabriel's theorem. Thus we classify the quivers of finite representation type and study their representations using reflection functors. Further material has been added after giving this course in Bielefeld in summer 2010. This includes a discussion of regular representations and wild phenomena. In particular, two classical examples are covered: representations of the Kronecker quiver and representations of the Klein four group.
