Local vertex endomorphism rings of string quotients #
At a displayed vertex of an admissible monomial bound-quiver quotient, the surviving loops form a basis. Splitting off the trivial loop writes every endomorphism as a scalar identity plus a positive-length tail. Path length is additive under multiplication, while admissibility kills every sufficiently long path, so the positive tail is nilpotent. Consequently the vertex endomorphism ring is local.
Regard a vertex endomorphism in the quotient category as an element of its endomorphism ring.
Instances For
The surviving-loop basis, regarded as a basis of the vertex endomorphism ring.
Instances For
The surviving trivial loop at a displayed vertex.
Instances For
The subspace spanned by surviving loops of length at least n.
Instances For
A surviving-loop basis vector lies in every tail below its length.
The length-zero tail is the whole vertex endomorphism ring.
If no surviving loop reaches length n, then the nth tail is zero.
Admissibility makes one sufficiently deep surviving-loop tail zero.
Multiplication adds lower bounds on the lengths of surviving loops.
Every vertex endomorphism is a scalar identity plus a positive-length tail.
Positive-length vertex endomorphisms are nilpotent.
The endomorphism ring of a displayed quotient vertex is nontrivial, witnessed by the surviving trivial path.
Every displayed vertex of an admissible monomial bound-quiver quotient has a local endomorphism ring.
Every object of the quotient category is represented by a displayed vertex, so all of its endomorphism rings are local.
