How statement and proof provenance work

The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.

  • Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
  • AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
  • AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.

These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

The Kronecker Hall algebra strictly contains its composition subalgebra

Statement

For the two-arrow Kronecker quiver, the degree (1,1) Hall component has q+2 basis classes, whereas its simple-generated composition subalgebra has dimension at most two in that degree. Thus the full Hall algebra is strictly larger than the composition subalgebra.

The diagram denotes two distinct parallel arrows from vertex 1 to vertex 2. A representation assigns a scalar to each arrow when both vertex spaces are one-dimensional.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Q is the quiver displayed above over Fq.

[F1]

Its finite-dimensional representation category is an acyclic finite-field hereditary Hall category, and dimension vector grades its Hall algebra (Finite-dimensional representations of an acyclic quiver form a hereditary finitary Hall category).

[F2]

The composition subalgebra in this example means the subalgebra of the twisted Hall algebra generated by the vertex-simple classes.

[F3]

The underlying untwisted Hall product is associative (The untwisted Hall product is associative and unital).

[F4]

Every finite field has cardinality q≥2.

Proof

technique · classify the degree component
1.1F1F3algebra

The acyclic Euler form is χ(α,β)=α1β1+α2β2−2α1β2, which is bilinear by [F1]. Define this example’s product by [M]⋆[N]=νχ(deg⁡M,deg⁡N)[M]∗[N], where ∗ is the untwisted Hall product of [F3]. This twist preserves associativity, since χ(α,β)+χ(α+β,γ)=χ(β,γ)+χ(α,β+γ). Thus the composition subalgebra is defined for this quiver.

1.2F1givenalgebra

A representation of dimension (1,1) is a pair (x,y)∈Fq2 of arrow scalars. An isomorphism is a pair of nonzero endpoint scalars (g1,g2), acting by common multiplication by g2/g1. The zero pair is one orbit and gives S1⊕S2. Each nonzero orbit is a line in Fq2, giving q+1 further orbits. Thus the full Hall component has q+2 independent isomorphism-class basis vectors.

2.1F2step 1.2algebra

A product of simples of total degree (1,1) must use S1 and S2 once each. There are only two possible words, [S1]⋆[S2] and [S2]⋆[S1], so the degree component generated by simples has dimension at most two.

Since q≥2 by [F4], q+2>2. The two subspaces have different dimensions, proving strict containment.
