From finite to infinite length modules over tame hereditary algebras

Representation Theory 2026-05-01 v1 Rings and Algebras

Abstract

A self-contained introduction to infinite dimensional representations over a tame hereditary algebra is provided, assuming a basic knowledge of the category of finite dimensional representations. This includes a complete description of all pure-injective modules. Of particular interest are the torsionfree divisible modules, which are precisely the direct sums of copies of the unique generic module.
