Rigid objects in higher cluster categories
Abstract
Description
We study maximal $m$-rigid objects in the $m$-cluster category $\mathcal C_H^m$ associated with a finite dimensional hereditary algebra $H$ with $n$ nonisomorphic simple modules. We show that all maximal $m$-rigid objects in these categories have exactly $n$ nonisomorphic indecomposable summands, and that any almost complete $m$-rigid object in $\mathcal C_H^m$ has exactly $m+1$ nonisomorphic complements. We also show that the maximal $m$-rigid objects and the $m$-cluster tilting objects in these categories coincide, and that the class of finite dimensional algebras associated with maximal $m$-rigid objects is closed under certain factor algebras.
