Abstract.
Let R be a complete discrete valuation domain with quotient field K, and let Λ be an R-order in a semisimple K-algebra. Butler, Campbell, and Kovács have shown that R-free Λ-modules decompose into Λ-lattices when Λ is representation-finite. Using the theory of ladder functors, we prove the converse by constructing indecomposable R-free Λ-modules of infinite rank if Λ is not representation-finite.
