In this paper we characterize all nilpotent orbits under the action by conjugation that intersect the nilpotent centralizer of a nilpotent matrix $B$ consisting of two Jordan blocks of the same size. We list all the possible Jordan canonical forms of the nilpotent matrices that commute with $B$ by characterizing the corresponding partitions.

In this paper we study indecomposable rank 2 modules in the Grassmannian cluster category ${\rm CM}(B_{5,10})$. This is the smallest wild case containing modules whose profile layers are $5$-interlacing. We construct all rank 2 indecomposable modules with filtration $\{i,i+2,i+4,i+6,i+8\}\mid \{i+1,i+3,i+5,i+7,i+9\}$, classify them up to isomorphism, and parameterize all infinite families of non-isomorphic rank 2 modules., Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:2107.03503. text overlap with arXiv:2011.14176

Rank $1$ modules are the building blocks of the category ${\rm CM}(B_{k,n}) $ of Cohen-Macaulay modules over a quotient $B_{k,n}$ of a preprojective algebra of affine type $A$. Jensen, King and Su showed in \cite{JKS16} that the category ${\rm CM}(B_{k,n})$ provides an additive categorification of the cluster algebra structure on the coordinate ring $\mathbb C[{\rm Gr}(k, n)]$ of the Grassmannian variety of $k$-dimensional subspaces in $\mathbb C^n$. Rank $1$ modules are indecomposable, they are known to be in bijection with $k$-subsets of $\{1,2,\dots,n\}$, and their explicit construction has been given in \cite{JKS16}. In this paper, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for indecomposability of an arbitrary rank 2 module in ${\rm CM}(B_{k,n})$ whose filtration layers are tightly interlacing. We give an explicit construction of all rank 2 decomposable modules that appear as extensions between rank 1 modules corresponding to tightly interlacing $k$-subsets $I$ and $J$., Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:2011.14176

The category ${\rm CM}(B_{k,n}) $ of Cohen-Macaulay modules over a quotient $B_{k,n}$ of a preprojective algebra provides a categorification of the cluster algebra structure on the coordinate ring of the Grassmannian variety of $k$-dimensional subspaces in $\mathbb C^n$, \cite{JKS16}. Among the indecomposable modules in this category are the rank $1$ modules which are in bijection with $k$-subsets of $\{1,2,\dots,n\}$, and their explicit construction has been given by Jensen, King and Su. These are the building blocks of the category as any module in ${\rm CM}(B_{k,n}) $ can be filtered by them. In this paper we give an explicit construction of rank 2 modules. With this, we give all indecomposable rank 2 modules in the cases when $k=3$ and $k=4$. In particular, we cover the tame cases and go beyond them. We also characterise the modules among them which are uniquely determined by their filtrations. For $k\ge 4$, we exhibit infinite families of non-isomorphic rank 2 modules having the same filtration.

The coordinate ring of the Grassmannian variety of $k$-dimensional subspaces in $\mathbb{C}^n$ has a cluster algebra structure with Pl\"ucker relations giving rise to exchange relations. In this paper, we study indecomposable modules of the corresponding Grassmannian cluster categories ${\rm CM}(B_{k,n})$. Jensen, King, and Su have associated a Kac-Moody root system $J_{k,n}$ to ${\rm CM}(B_{k,n})$ and shown that in the finite types, rigid indecomposable modules correspond to roots. In general, the link between the category ${\rm CM}(B_{k,n})$ and the root system $J_{k,n}$ remains mysterious and it is an open question whether indecomposables always give roots. In this paper, we provide evidence for this association in the infinite types: we show that every indecomposable rank 2 module corresponds to a root of the associated root system. We also show that indecomposable rank 3 modules in ${\rm CM}(B_{3,n})$ all give rise to roots of $J_{3,n}$. For the rank 3 modules in ${\rm CM}(B_{3,n})$ corresponding to real roots, we show that their underlying profiles are cyclic permutations of a certain canonical one. We also characterize the rank 3 modules in ${\rm CM}(B_{3,n})$ corresponding to imaginary roots. By proving that there are exactly 225 profiles of rigid indecomposable rank 3 modules in ${\rm CM}(B_{3,9})$ we confirm the link between the Grassmannian cluster category and the associated root system in this case. We conjecture that the profile of any rigid indecomposable module in ${\rm CM}(B_{k,n})$ corresponding to a real root is a cyclic permutation of a canonical profile., Comment: Proposition 2.10 on the tubularity of a category is added. An appendix about induction and restriction techniques is added

We extend our investigation of $2$-determinants, which we defined in a previous paper. For a linear homogenous recurrence of the second order, we consider relations between different sequences satisfying the same linear homogeneous recurrence of the second order. After we prove a generalized identity of d'Ocagne, we derive, from a single identity, a number of classical identities (and their generalizations) such as d'Ocagne's, Cassini's, Catalan's and Vajda's. Along the way, the corresponding combinatorial interpretations in terms of restricted words over a finite alphabet are stated for the sequences we investigate.

The category of Cohen-Macaulay modules of an algebra $B_{k,n}$ is used [JKS16] to give an additive categorification of the cluster algebra structure on the homogeneous coordinate ring of the Grassmannian of $k$-planes in $n$-space. In this paper, we find canonical Auslander--Reiten sequences and study the Auslander--Reiten translation periodicity for this category. Furthermore, we give an explicit construction of Cohen-Macaulay modules of arbitrary rank. We then use our results to establish a correspondence between rigid indecomposable modules of rank 2 and real roots of degree 2 for the associated Kac-Moody algebra in the tame cases., Comment: A construction of modules of arbitrary ranks is added

In this paper we study extensions between Cohen-Macaulay modules for algebras arising in the categorifications of Grassmannian cluster algebras. We prove that rank 1 modules are periodic, and we give explicit formulas for the computation of the period based solely on the rim of the rank 1 module in question. We determine ${\rm Ext}^i(L_I, L_J)$ for arbitrary rank 1 modules $L_I$ and $L_J$. An explicit combinatorial algorithm is given for computation of ${\rm Ext}^i(L_I, L_J)$ when $i$ is odd, and for $i$ even, we show that ${\rm Ext}^i(L_I, L_J)$ is cyclic over the centre, and we give an explicit formula for its computation. At the end of the paper we give a vanishing condition of ${\rm Ext}^i(L_I, L_J)$ for any $i>0$.

In this paper we study the existence of gradings on finite dimensional associative algebras. We prove that a connected algebra $A$ does not have a non-trivial grading if and only if $A$ is basic, its quiver has one vertex, and its group of outer automorphisms is unipotent. We apply this result to prove that up to graded Morita equivalence there do not exist non-trivial gradings on the blocks of group algebras with quaternion defect groups and one isomorphism class of simple modules., Comment: We give necessary and sufficient conditions for an associative finite dimensional algebra not to possess a non-trivial Z-grading. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1001.1643

In this paper we investigate gradings on tame blocks of group algebras whose defect group is dihedral. We classify gradings on an arbitrary dihedral block up to graded Morita equivalence. We do this by computing the group of outer automorphisms that fix the isomorphism classes of simple modules. We also show how to grade these blocks via transfer of gradings via dervied equivalences., Comment: 27 pages

In this paper we construct non-negative gradings on a basic Brauer tree algebra $A_{\Gamma}$ corresponding to an arbitrary Brauer tree $\Gamma$ of type $(m,e)$. We do this by transferring gradings via derived equivalence from a basic Brauer tree algebra $A_S$, whose tree is a star with the exceptional vertex in the middle, to $A_{\Gamma}$. The grading on $A_S$ comes from the tight grading given by the radical filtration. To transfer gradings via derived equivalence we use tilting complexes constructed by taking Green's walk around $\Gamma$ (cf. [\ref{Zak}]). By computing endomorphism rings of these tilting complexes we get graded algebras. We also compute ${\rm Out}^K(A_{\Gamma})$, the group of outer automorphisms that fix isomorphism classes of simple $A_{\Gamma}$-modules, where $\Gamma$ is an arbitrary Brauer tree, and we prove that there is unique grading on $A_{\Gamma}$ up to graded Morita equivalence and rescaling., Comment: The formatting of the text has been improved. The computation in the last section is significantly shorter
