On the indecomposability in the category of representations of a quiver and in its subcategory of orthoscalar representations

Abstract

One can regard the category of represenations of quivers in Hilbert spaces as a subcategory in the category of all representations, and at that objects, which are indecomposable in the subcategory, become in general decomposable in the ``larger'' category. We prove that it does not happen with indecomposable locally scalar representations of a quiver.
