Representation Theory
Scientific paper
The representation dimension of an artin algebra as introduced by M.Auslander in his Queen Mary Notes is the minimal possible global dimension of the endomorphism ring of a generator-cogenerator. The paper is based on two texts written in 2008 in connection with a workshop at Bielefeld. The first part presents a full proof that any torsionless-finite artin algebra has representation dimension at most 3, and provides a long list of classes of algebras which are torsionless-finite. In the second part we show that the representation dimension is adjusted very well to forming tensor products of algebras. In this way one obtains a wealth of examples of artin algebras with large representation dimension. In particular, we show: The tensor product of n representation-infinite path algebras of bipartite quivers has representation dimension precisely n+2.
