On generic bricks over tame algebras

Abstract

We prove that if ${\Lambda}$ is a tame finite-dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field and $G$ is a generic ${\Lambda}-$module, then $G$ is a generic brick if and only if it determines a one-parameter family of bricks with the same dimension. In particular, we obtain that ${\Lambda}$ admits a generic brick if and only if ${\Lambda}$ is brick-continuous.
