Abstract

Let $Q$ be a finite quiver without oriented cycles, and let $k$ be an algebraically closed field. The main result in this paper is that there is a natural bijection between the elements in the associated Weyl group $W_{Q}$ and the cofinite additive quotient closed subcategories of the category of finite dimensional right modules over $kQ$. We prove this correspondence by linking these subcategories to certain ideals in the preprojective algebra associated to $Q$, which are also indexed by elements of $W_{Q}$.
