The second brick-Brauer-Thrall conjecture

At least 1 year old · documented by

Let AA be a finite-dimensional algebra over a field kk. Write brick⁡(A,d)\operatorname{brick}(A,d) for the set of isomorphism classes of bricks of dimension dd, and call AA brick-finite if it has only finitely many bricks up to isomorphism. Second brick-Brauer-Thrall conjecture. The algebra AA is brick-finite if and only if brick⁡(A,d)\operatorname{brick}(A,d) is a finite set for every d∈Z>0d\in\mathbb{Z}_{>0}. This conjecture connects brick-finiteness with the bounded-dimension behavior of bricks; it was settled for special biserial algebras and other families, but the source records it as having been resolved in that setting.
