Abstract

Constraints are given on the depth of diagonal subalgebras in generalized triangular matrix algebras. The depth of the top subalgebra \(B \cong A / \mathrm{rad}\,A\) in a finite, connected, acyclic quiver algebra \(A\) over an algebraically closed field \(\mathbb {K}\,\) is then computed. Also the depth of the primary arrow subalgebra \(1\mathbb {K}\,+ \mathrm{rad}\,A = B\) in \(A\) is obtained. The two types of subalgebras have depths \(3\) and \(4\) respectively, independent of the number of vertices. An upper bound on depth is obtained for the quotient of a subalgebra pair.
