Abstract

We use the stabilization functors to study the combinatorial aspects of the FF-polynomial of a representation of any finite-dimensional basic algebra. We characterize the vertices of their Newton polytopes. We give an explicit formula for the FF-polynomial restricting to any face of its Newton polytope. For acyclic quivers, we give a complete description of all facets of the Newton polytope when the representation is general. We also prove that the support of the FF-polynomial is saturated for any rigid representation. We provide many examples and counterexamples, and pose several conjectures.
