The Rank of a Quiver Representation
نویسنده
چکیده
We define a functor which gives the “global rank of a quiver representation” and prove that it has nice properties which make it a generalization of the rank of a linear map. We demonstrate how to construct other “rank functors” for a quiver Q, which induce ring homomorphisms (called “rank functions”) from the representation ring of Q to Z. These rank functions give discrete numerical invariants of quiver representations, useful for computing tensor product multiplicities of representations and determining some structure of the representation ring. We also show that in characteristic 0, rank functors commute with the Schur operations on quiver representations, and the homomorphisms induced by rank functors are λ-ring homomorphisms.

A Universal Investigation of $n$-representations of $n$-quivers
noindent We have two goals in this paper. First, we investigate and construct cofree coalgebras over $n$-representations of quivers, limits and colimits of $n$-representations of quivers, and limits and colimits of coalgebras in the monoidal categories of $n$-representations of quivers. Second, for any given quivers $mathit{Q}_1$,$mathit{Q}_2$,..., $mathit{Q}_n$, we construct a new quiver $math...
متن کاملQuiver Representations of Maximal Rank Type and an Application to Representations of a Quiver with Three Vertices
We introduce the notion of “maximal rank type” for representations of quivers, which requires certain collections of maps involved in the representation to be of maximal rank. We show that real root representations of quivers are of maximal rank type. By using the maximal rank type property and universal extension functors we construct all real root representations of a particular wild quiver w...
متن کاملCLUSTER ALGEBRAS AND CLUSTER CATEGORIES
These are notes from introductory survey lectures given at the Institute for Studies in Theoretical Physics and Mathematics (IPM), Teheran, in 2008 and 2010. We present the definition and the fundamental properties of Fomin-Zelevinsky’s cluster algebras. Then, we introduce quiver representations and show how they can be used to construct cluster variables, which are the canonical generator...
متن کاملDeep Unsupervised Domain Adaptation for Image Classification via Low Rank Representation Learning
Domain adaptation is a powerful technique given a wide amount of labeled data from similar attributes in different domains. In real-world applications, there is a huge number of data but almost more of them are unlabeled. It is effective in image classification where it is expensive and time-consuming to obtain adequate label data. We propose a novel method named DALRRL, which consists of deep ...
متن کاملOn Homomorphisms from Ringel-hall Algebras to Quantum Cluster Algebras
In [1],the authors defined algebra homomorphisms from the dual RingelHall algebra of certain hereditary abelian categoryA to an appropriate q-polynomial algebra. In the case that A is the representation category of an acyclic quiver, we give an alternative proof by using the cluster multiplication formulas in [9]. Moreover, if the underlying graph of Q is bipartite and the matrix B associated t...
