Cluster Algebras, Quiver Representations and Triangulated Categories

نویسنده

  • BERNHARD KELLER
چکیده

This is an introduction to some aspects of Fomin-Zelevinsky’s cluster algebras and their links with the representation theory of quivers and with Calabi-Yau triangulated categories. It is based on lectures given by the author at summer schools held in 2006 (Bavaria) and 2008 (Jerusalem). In addition to by now classical material, we present the outline of a proof of the periodicity conjecture for pairs of Dynkin diagrams (details will appear elsewhere) and recent results on the interpretation of mutations as derived equivalences.

CLUSTER 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...

Calabi-Yau triangulated categories

We review the definition of a Calabi-Yau triangulated category and survey examples coming from the representation theory of quivers and finite-dimensional algebras. Our main motivation comes from the links between quiver representations and Fomin-Zelevinsky’s cluster algebras. Mathematics Subject Classification (2000). Primary 18E30; Secondary 16D90, 18G10.

Acyclic Calabi-yau Categories with an Appendix by Michel Van Den Bergh

We show that an algebraic 2-Calabi-Yau triangulated category over an algebraically closed field is a cluster category if it contains a cluster tilting subcategory whose quiver has no oriented cycles. We prove a similar characterization for higher cluster categories. As a first application, we show that the stable category of maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules over a certain isolated singularity of ...

Acyclic Calabi-yau Categories

We prove a structure theorem for triangulated Calabi-Yau categories: An algebraic 2-Calabi-Yau triangulated category over an algebraically closed field is a cluster category iff it contains a cluster tilting subcategory whose quiver has no oriented cycles. We prove a similar characterization for higher cluster categories. As an application to commutative algebra, we show that the stable categor...
