Semi-stable subcategories for Euclidean quivers

Representation Theory 2015-03-16 v3

Abstract

In this paper, we study the semi-stable subcategories of the category of representations of a Euclidean quiver, and the possible intersections of these subcategories. Contrary to the Dynkin case, we find out that the intersection of semi-stable subcategories may not be semi-stable. However, only a finite number of exceptions occur, and we give a description of these subcategories. Moreover, one can attach a simplicial fan in Qn\mathbb{Q}^n to any acyclic quiver QQ, and this simplicial fan allows one to completely determine the canonical presentation of any element in Zn\mathbb{Z}^n. This fan has a nice description in the Dynkin and Euclidean cases: it is described using an arrangement of convex codimension-one subsets of Qn\mathbb{Q}^n, each such subset being indexed by a real Schur root or a set of quasi-simple objects. This fan also characterizes when two different stability conditions give rise to the same semi-stable subcategory.
