A characterization of right 4-Nakayama artin algebras

Abstract

We characterize right $4$-Nakayama artin algebras which appear naturally in the study of representation-finite artin algebras. For a right $4$-Nakayama artin algebra $\Lambda$, we classify all finitely generated indecomposable right $\Lambda$-modules and then we compute all almost split sequences over $\Lambda$. We also give a characterization of right $4$-Nakayama finite dimensional $K$-algebras in terms of their quivers with relations.
