We use noncrossing edge-labeled trees in a disk with boundary vertices (expanding on T. Araya's work) to classify exceptional sequences of representations of Q, the linearly-ordered quiver with n vertices. We also show how to use variations of this model to classify c-matrices of Q, to interpret exceptional sequences as linear extensions, and to give a simple bijection between exceptional sequences and certain chains in the lattice of noncrossing partitions. In the case of c-matrices, we also give an interpretation of c-matrix mutation in terms of our noncrossing trees with directed edges.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-12-10T16:52:36.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "16G20", "05E10", "13F60" ], "keywords": [ "combinatorial model", "interpret exceptional sequences", "c-matrix mutation", "arayas work", "classify exceptional sequences" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
