Vanishing of the module-category surplus for string algebras #
The literal Butler--Ringel count is stated for the quotient-category algebra carried by a string presentation. This file transports that count across the algebra equivalence bundled in an arbitrary string model and states the result for any complete duplicate-free right-module skeleton of the presented algebra.
Every right-mesh middle term of a representation-finite string algebra has total arity at most two, including the projective endpoints.
Every representation-finite algebra admitting a string presentation has
beta ≤ 2: its nonprojective right-mesh middle terms have total arity at
most two, and beta only counts their nonprojective summands.
Every representation-finite algebra admitting a string presentation has zero Auslander--Reiten surplus on any chosen indecomposable skeleton.
