Abstract

Recall that the goal of representation theory is to classify the indecomposable modules and the morphisms between them. The Auslander–Reiten quiver is a first approximation of the module category. If the quiver is of finite representation type, then the Auslander–Reiten quiver gives a complete picture of the module category.
