Counting equivalence classes of irreducible representations

Rings and Algebras 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Let nn be a positive integer, and let RR be a (possibly infinite dimensional) finitely presented algebra over a computable field of characteristic zero. We describe an algorithm for deciding (in principle) whether RR has at most finitely many equivalence classes of nn-dimensional irreducible representations. When RR does have only finitely many such equivalence classes, they can be effectively counted (assuming that k[x]k[x] posesses a factoring algorithm).
