We provide a quiver-theoretic interpretation of certain smooth complete simplicial fans associated to arbitrary finite root systems in recent work of S. Fomin and A. Zelevinsky. The main properties of these fans then become easy consequences of the known facts about tilting modules due to K. Bongartz, D. Happel and C. M. Ringel.
In hep-th/0111053, a complete simplicial fan was associated to an arbitrary finite root system. It was conjectured that this fan is the normal fan of a simple convex polytope (a generalized associahedron of the corresponding type). Here we prove this conjecture by explicitly exhibiting a family of such polytopal realizations.
In this paper, we introduce generalized quiver varieties which include as special cases classical and cyclic quiver varieties. The geometry of generalized quiver varieties is governed by a finitely generated algebra P: the algebra P is self-injective if the quiver Q is of Dynkin type, and coincides with the preprojective algebra in the case of classical quiver varieties. We show that in the Dynkin case the strata of generalized quiver varieties are in bijection with the isomorphism classes of objects in proj P, and that their degeneration order coincides with the Jensen-Su-Zimmermann's degener…
We define a special sort of weighted oriented graphs, signed quivers. Each of these yields a symmetric quiver, i.e., a quiver endowed with an involutive anti-automorphism and the inherited signs. We develop a representation theory of symmetric quivers, in particular we describe the indecomposable symmetric representations. Their dimensions constitute root systems corresponding to certain symmetrizable generalized Cartan matrices.
The goal of this paper is to clarify the connection between certain structures from the theory of totally nonnegative Grassmannians, quiver Grassmannians for cyclic quivers and the theory of local models of Shimura varieties. More precisely, we generalize the construction from our previous paper relating the combinatorics and geometry of quiver Grassmanians to that of the totally nonnegative Grassmannians. The varieties we are interested in serve as realizations of local models of Shimura varieties. We exploit quiver representation techniques to study the quiver Grassmannians of interest and, …
We construct the entire generalized Kac-Moody Lie algebra as a quotient of the positive part of another generalized Kac-Moody Lie algebra. The positive part of a generalized Kac-Moody Lie algebra can be constructed from representations of quivers using Ringel's Hall algebra construction. Thus we give a direct realization of the entire generalized Kac-Moody Lie algebra.
We generalize the geometric construction of quiver Hecke algebras from Varagnolo and Vasserot to a setup with arbitrary connected reductive groups. This corresponds to replacing quiver representations by generalized quiver representations introduced by Derksen and Weyman. The class of algebras which we construct contains (affine) nil Hecke algebras, skew group rings of Weyl groups with polynomial rings and quiver Hecke algebras. We describe an explicit faithful representation in a polynomial ring and we calculate the generators and relations for these algebras.
It has been proved in \cite{LS} that cluster variables in cluster algebras of every skew-symmetric cluster algebra are positive. We prove that any regular generalized cluster variable of an affine quiver is positive. As a corollary, we obtain that generalized cluster variables of affine quivers are positive and construct various positive bases. This generalizes the results in \cite{Dupont} and \cite{DXX}.
For coprime dimension vectors certain torus fixed points of the Kronecker moduli space are indecomposable tree modules. They are indecomposable representations of the regular m-tree and can be glued in order to get stable torus fixed point for every coprime dimension vector. Using their stability and the reflection functor we show that for arbitrary roots there exist indecomposable tree modules of the Kronecker quiver as factor modules of these torus fixed points.
In the context of varieties of representations of arbitrary quivers, possibly carrying loops, we define a generalization of Lusztig Lagrangian subvarieties. From the combinatorial study of their irreducible components arises a structure richer than the usual Kashiwara crystals. Along with the geometric study of Nakajima quiver varieties, in the same context, this yields a notion of generalized crystals, coming with a tensor product. As an application, we define the semicanonical basis of the Hopf algebra generalizing quantum groups, which was already equipped with a canonical basis. The irredu…
Let $C$ be a simply laced generalized Cartan matrix. Given an element $b$ of the generalized braid semigroup related to $C$, we construct a collection of mutation-equivalent quivers with potentials. A quiver with potential in such a collection corresponds to an expression of $b$ in terms of the standard generators. For two expressions that differ by a braid relation, the corresponding quivers with potentials are related by a mutation. The main application of this result is a construction of a family of $CY_3$ $A_\infty$-categories associated to elements of the braid semigroup related to $C$. I…
In this paper, we give a method for relating the generalized category $\mathcal{O}$ defined by the author and collaborators to explicit finitely presented algebras, and apply this to quiver varieties. This allows us to describe combinatorially not just the structure of these category $\mathcal{O}$'s but also how certain interesting families of derived equivalences, the shuffling and twisting functors, act on them. In the case of Nakajima quiver varieties, the algebras that appear are weighted KLR algebras and their steadied quotients, defined by the author in earlier work. In particular, these…
Tristan Bozec gave a definition of generalized quantum groups that extends the usual definition of quantum groups to finite quivers with loops at vertices, and he introduced a theory of generalized crystals for this new family of Hopf algebras. We explicitly characterize the generalized crystal $\mathcal{B}(\infty)$ associated to a certain family of quivers with multiple loops by providing a complete set of relations among the Kashiwara operators themselves.
We give a quiver representation theoretic interpretation of generalized cluster complexes defined by Fomin and Reading. By using $d-$cluster categories which are defined by Keller as triangulated orbit categories of (bounded) derived categories of representations of valued quivers, we define a $d-$compatibility degree $(-||-)$ on any pair of ``colored'' almost positive real Schur roots which generalizes previous definitions on the non-colored case, and call two such roots compatible provided the $d-$compatibility degree of them is zero. Associated to the root system $Φ$ corresponding to the va…

Quiver quantum mechanics is invariant under Seiberg duality. A mathematical consequence is that the cohomology of the Higgs branch moduli space is invariant under mutations of the quiver. The Coulomb branch formula, on the other hand, conjecturally expresses the Poincaré / Dolbeault polynomial of the Higgs branch moduli space in terms of certain quantities known as single-centered indices. In this work we determine the transformations of these single-centered indices under mutations. Moreover, we generalize these mutations to quivers whose nodes carry single-centered indices different from uni…
The cluster algebra of any acyclic quiver can be realized as the coordinate ring of a subvariety of a Kac-Moody group -- the quiver is an orientation of its Dynkin diagram, defining a Coxeter element and thereby a double Bruhat cell. We use this realization to connect representations of the quiver with those of the group. We show that cluster variables of preprojective (resp. postinjective) quiver representations are realized by generalized minors of highest-weight (resp. lowest-weight) group representations, generalizing results of Yang-Zelevinsky in finite type. In type $A_n^{\!(1)}$ and fin…
Let $Q$ be a finite quiver and $G\subseteq\Aut(\mathbbm{k}Q)$ a finite abelian group. Assume that $\hat{Q}$ and $Γ$ is the generalized Mckay quiver and the valued graph corresponding to $(Q, G)$ respectively. In this paper we discuss the relationship between indecomposable $\hat{Q}$-representations and the root system of Kac-Moody algebra $\mathfrak{g}(Γ)$. Moreover, we may lift $G$ to $\bar{G}\subseteq\Aut(\mathfrak{g}(\hat{Q}))$ such that $\mathfrak{g}(Γ)$ embeds into the fixed point algebra $\mathfrak{g}(\hat{Q})^{\bar{G}}$ and $\mathfrak{g}(\hat{Q})^{\bar{G}}$ as $\mathfrak{g}(Γ)$-module i…
The concept of modulation is generalized to pseudo-modulation and its subclasses including pre-modulation, generalized modulation and regular modulation. The motivation is to define the valued analogue of natural quiver, called {\em natural valued quiver}, of an artinian algebra so as to correspond to its valued Ext-quiver when this algebra is not $k$-splitting over the field $k$. Moreover, we illustrate the relation between the valued Ext-quiver and the natural valued quiver. The interesting fact we find is that the representation categories of a pseudo-modulation and of a pre-modulation are …
The motivation of this paper is to study the natural quiver of an artinian algebra, a new kind of quivers, as a tool independing upon the associated basic algebra. In \cite{Li}, the notion of the natural quiver of an artinian algebra was introduced and then was used to generalize the Gabriel theorem for non-basic artinian algebras splitting over radicals and non-basic finite dimensional algebras with 2-nilpotent radicals via pseudo path algebras and generalized path algebras respectively. In this paper, firstly we consider the relationship between the natural quiver and the ordinary quiver of …
We study Laurent expansions of cluster variables in a cluster algebra of rank 2 associated to a generalized Kronecker quiver. In the case of the ordinary Kronecker quiver, we obtain explicit expressions for Laurent expansions of the elements of the canonical basis for the corresponding cluster algebra.
We investigate the generalized Kronecker algebra $\mathcal{K}_r = kΓ_r$ with $r \geq 3$ arrows. Given a regular component $\mathcal{C}$ of the Auslander-Reiten quiver of $\mathcal{K}_r$, we show that the quasi-rank $rk(\mathcal{C}) \in \mathbb{Z}_{\leq 1}$ can be described almost exactly as the distance $\mathcal{W}(\mathcal{C}) \in \mathbb{N}_0$ between two non-intersecting cones in $\mathcal{C}$, given by modules with the equal images and the equal kernels property; more precisley, we show that the two numbers are linked by the inequality \[ -\mathcal{W}(\mathcal{C}) \leq rk(\mathcal{C}) \le…
We first provide an explicit combinatorial description of the Auslander-Reiten quiver $Γ^Q$ of finite type $D$. Then we can investigate the categories of finite dimensional representations over the quantum affine algebra $U_q'(D^{(i)}_{n+1})$ $(i=1,2)$ and the quiver Hecke algebra $R_{D_{n+1}}$ associated to $D_{n+1}$ $(n \ge 3)$, by using the combinatorial description and the generalized quantum affine Schur-Weyl duality functor. As applications, we can prove that Dorey's rule holds for the category $\Rep(R_{D_{n+1}})$ and prove an interesting difference between multiplicity free positive roo…
The quiver Hecke algebra $R$ can be also understood as a generalization of the affine Hecke algebra of type $A$ in the context of the quantum affine Schur-Weyl duality by the results of Kang, Kashiwara and Kim. On the other hand, it is well-known that the Auslander-Reiten(AR) quivers $Γ_Q$ of finite simply-laced types have a deep relation with the positive roots systems of the corresponding types. In this paper, we present explicit combinatorial descriptions for the AR-quivers $Γ_Q$ of finite type $A$. Using the combinatorial descriptions, we can investigate relations between finite dimensiona…
Varagnolo-Vasserot and Rouquier proved that, in a symmetric generalized Cartan matrix case, the simple modules over the quiver Hecke algebra with a special parameter correspond to the upper global basis. In this note we show that the simple modules over the quiver Hecke algebras with a generic parameter also correspond to the upper global basis in a symmetric generalized Cartan matrix case.
We define a generalized version of the frieze variety introduced by Lee, Li, Mills, Seceleanu and the second author. The generalized frieze variety is an algebraic variety determined by an acyclic quiver and a generic specialization of cluster variables in the cluster algebra for this quiver. The original frieze variety is obtained when this specialization is (1, . . . , 1). The main result is that a generalized frieze variety is determined by any generic element of any component of that variety. We also show that the "Coxeter mutation" cyclically permutes these components. In particular, this…
We define an analogue of the Caldero-Chapoton map (\cite{CC}) for the cluster category of finite dimensional nilpotent representations over a cyclic quiver. We prove that it is a cluster character (in the sense of \cite{Palu}) and satisfies some inductive formulas for the multiplication between the generalized cluster variables (the images of objects of the cluster category under the map). Moreover, we construct a $\mathbb{Z}$-basis for the algebras generated by all generalized cluster variables.
We prove that all quiver Grassmannians for exceptional representations of a generalized Kronecker quiver admit a cell decomposition. In the process, we introduce a class of regular representations which arise as quotients of consecutive preprojective representations. Cell decompositions for quiver Grassmannians of these "truncated preprojectives" are also established. We also provide two natural combinatorial labelings for these cells. On the one hand, they are labeled by certain subsets of a so-called 2-quiver attached to a (truncated) preprojective representation. On the other hand, the cell…
Let U be the quantum group associated to a symmetrizable generalized Cartan matrix. We give a realization of U from the category of the representations of certain product valued quiver.
We introduce a multivariate generalization of normalized Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind. We prove that these polynomials arise in the context of cluster characters associated to Dynkin quivers of type $\mathbb A$ and representation-infinite quivers. This allows to obtain a simple combinatorial description of cluster algebras of type $\mathbb A$. We also provide explicit multiplication formulas for cluster characters associated to regular modules over the path algebra of any representation-infinite quiver.
We show that the generalized W-modules defined in a foregoing paper determine ZA_\infty- components in the Auslander-Reiten quiver Γ(n,r) of the generalized Beilinson algebra B(n,r), n \geq 3. These components entirely consist of modules with the constant Jordan type property. We arrive at this result by interpreting B(n,r) as an iterated one-point extension of the r-Kronecker algebra K_r which enables us to generalize findings concerning the Auslander-Reiten quiver Γ(K_r) presented in earlier work to B(n,r).
This paper concerns preprojective representations of a finite connected valued quiver without oriented cycles. For each such representation, an explicit formula in terms of the geometry of the quiver gives a unique, up to a certain equivalence, shortest (+)-admissible sequence such that the corresponding composition of reflection functors annihilates the representation. The set of equivalence classes of the above sequences is a partially ordered set that contains a great deal of information about the preprojective component of the Auslander-Reiten quiver. The results apply to the study of redu…
By using perverse sheaves on representation spaces of quivers over $k[t]/(t^n)$ and jet schemes over flag varieties, we construct a geometric composition algebra $\mathbf K$ under Lusztig's framework on geometric realizations of the negative part of quantum algebras. Simple perverse sheaves in $\mathbf K$ form the canonical basis of $\mathbf K$. The relationships among the algebra $\mathbf K$, the composition algebra of locally projective representations of quivers over $k[t]/(t^n)$ and quantum generalized Kac-Moody algebra are provided.
For a quiver with weighted arrows we define gauge-theory K-theoretic W-algebra generalizing the definition of Shiraishi et al., and Frenkel and Reshetikhin. In particular, we show that the qq-character construction of gauge theory presented by Nekrasov is isomorphic to the definition of the W-algebra in the operator formalism as a commutant of screening charges in the free field representation. Besides, we allow arbitrary quiver and expect interesting applications to representation theory of generalized Borcherds-Kac-Moody Lie algebras, their quantum affinizations and associated W-algebras.
In this paper we study the combinatorial consequences of the relationship between rational Cherednik algebras of type $G(l,1,n)$, cyclic quiver varieties and Hilbert schemes. We classify and explicitly construct $\mathbb{C}^*$-fixed points in cyclic quiver varieties and calculate the corresponding characters of tautological bundles. Furthermore, we give a combinatorial description of the bijections between $\mathbb{C}^*$-fixed points induced by the Etingof-Ginzburg isomorphism and Nakajima reflection functors. We apply our results to obtain a new proof as well as a generalization of the $q$-ho…
Our interest in this paper is a generalization of the additive Deligne-Simpson problem which is originally defined for Fuchsian differential equations on the Riemann sphere. We shall extend this problem to differential equations having an arbitrary number of unramified irregular singular points and determine the existence of solutions of the generalized additive Deligne-Simpson problems. Moreover we apply this result to the geometry of the moduli spaces of stable meromorphic connections of trivial bundles on the Riemann sphere. Namely, open embedding of the moduli spaces into quiver varieties …
In this note we review some of the uses of framed quivers to study BPS invariants of Donaldson-Thomas type. We will mostly focus on non-compact Calabi-Yau threefolds. In certain cases the study of these invariants can be approached as a generalized instanton problem in a six dimensional cohomological Yang-Mills theory. One can construct a quantum mechanics model based on a certain framed quiver which locally describes the theory around a generalized instanton solution. The problem is then reduced to the study of the moduli spaces of representations of these quivers. Examples include the affine…
We present a simple unified formula expressing the denominators of the normalized R-matrices between the fundamental modules over the quantum loop algebras of type ADE. It has an interpretation in terms of representations of the Dynkin quivers and can be proved in a unified way using the geometry of graded quiver varieties. As a by-product, we obtain a geometric interpretation of Kang-Kashiwara-Kim's generalized quantum affine Schur-Weyl duality functor when it arises from a family of fundamental modules. We also study several cases when the graded quiver varieties are isomorphic to the graded…
The concept of generalized path algebras was introduced in (Coelho, Liu, 2000). Roughly speaking, these algebras are constructed in a similar way to that of the path algebras over a quiver, the difference being that we assign an algebra to each vertex of the quiver and consider paths intercalated with elements from these algebras. Then we use concatenation of paths together with the algebra structure in each vertex to define multiplication. The representations of a generalized path algebra were described in one of the main results of (Ibáñez Cobos et al., 2008), in terms of the representations…
We provide a complete classification of all algebras of generalised dihedral type, which are natural generalizations of algebras which occurred in the study of blocks with dihedral defect groups. This gives a description by quivers and relations coming from surface triangulations.
We give a complete description of finite dimensional selfinjective algebras over an algebraically closed field whose Auslander-Reiten quiver admits a generalized standard family of quasi-tubes maximally saturated by simple and projective modules. In particular, we show that these algebras are selfinjective algebras of strictly canonical type.
This paper studies connections between the preprojective representations of a valued quiver, the (+)-admissible sequences of vertices, and the Weyl group by associating to each preprojective representation a canonical (+)-admissible sequence. A (+)-admissible sequence is the canonical sequence of some preprojective representation if and only if the product of simple reflections associated to the vertices of the sequence is a reduced word in the Weyl group. As a consequence, for any Coxeter element of the Weyl group associated to an indecomposable symmetrizable generalized Cartan matrix, the gr…
We provide a geometric realization of the crystal $B(\infty)$ for quantum generalized Kac-Moody algebras in terms of the irreducible components of certain Lagrangian subvarieties in the representation spaces of a quiver.
Let $Q$ be a tame quiver of type $\widetilde{\mathbb{A}}_n$ and $\Rep(Q)$ the category of finite dimensional representations over an algebraically closed field. A representation is simply called a module. It will be shown that a regular string module has, up to isomorphism, at most two Gabriel-Roiter submodules. The quivers $Q$ with sink-source orientations will be characterized as those, whose central parts do not contain preinjective modules. It will also be shown that there are only finitely many (central) Gabriel-Roiter measures admitting no direct predecessors. This fact will be generaliz…
We realize a family of generalized cluster algebras as Caldero-Chapoton algebras of quivers with relations. Each member of this family arises from an unpunctured polygon with one orbifold point of order 3, and is realized as a Caldero-Chapoton algebra of a quiver with relations naturally associated to any triangulation of the alluded polygon. The realization is done by defining for every arc $j$ on the polygon with orbifold point a representation $M(j)$ of the referred quiver with relations, and by proving that for every triangulation $τ$ and every arc $j\inτ$, the product of the Caldero-Chapo…
Exceptional modules are tree modules. A tree module usually has many tree bases and the corresponding coefficient quivers may look quite differently. The aim of this note is to introduce a class of exceptional modules which have a distinguished tree basis, we call them radiation modules (generalizing an inductive construction considered already by Kinser). For a Dynkin quiver, nearly all indecomposable representations turn out to be radiation modules, the only exception is the maximal indecomposable module in case E_8. Also, the exceptional representation of the generalized Kronecker quivers a…
