Graded Euler-admissibility and the graded Cartan isomorphism #
Let A be a finite-dimensional algebra over a field k, nonnegatively graded with semisimple
degree-zero part, and let S be an exhaustive family of graded simples up to internal shift,
indexed by a finite type. If every pair (Sᵢ, Sⱼ) is graded Euler-admissible, then every finite
graded module has finite projective dimension, so it has a finite resolution by finite graded
projectives. Admissibility of (M, Sⱼ) gives a cohomological bound on Extⁿ(M, Sⱼ{d}) that is
uniform in the internal degree d, and every finite simple graded module is some Sⱼ{d}; hence
Extⁿ(M, -) vanishes on all finite simples from some degree on, and this bounds the projective
dimension of M
(TauCeti.GradedProjectiveResolution.hasProjectiveDimensionLT_of_subsingleton_ext_simple).
Consequently the graded Cartan map is an isomorphism of ℤ[q,q⁻¹]-modules, and the graded Cartan
matrix in any projective and module bases indexed by the same finite type has unit determinant.
Nothing is assumed about the field splitting the simple modules, so this applies to the bases
TauCeti.gradedIdempotentProjectiveBasisOfPrimitive and
TauCeti.gradedIdempotentHeadBasisOfPrimitive of a family of primitive idempotents
(TauCeti.isUnit_det_gradedCartanMatrix_gradedIdempotentProjectiveBasisOfPrimitive).
Admissibility of the simples is a genuine hypothesis: for the dual numbers k[ε]/(ε²) with ε in
degree two, the graded Cartan matrix is [1 + q²], whose determinant is not a unit of
ℤ[q,q⁻¹].

Euler-admissible simples force finite resolutions. Over a finite-dimensional nonnegatively graded algebra with semisimple degree-zero part, if every pair of members of an exhaustive family of graded simples is graded Euler-admissible, then every finite graded module has a finite resolution by finite graded projectives.
The graded Cartan map is an isomorphism when the simples are Euler-admissible. Over a
finite-dimensional nonnegatively graded algebra with semisimple degree-zero part, if every pair of
members of an exhaustive family of graded simples is graded Euler-admissible, then the graded
Cartan map K₀^gr(proj A) ⟶ G₀^gr(mod A) is bijective.
Graded Cartan unimodularity from Euler-admissible simples. Over a finite-dimensional
nonnegatively graded algebra with semisimple degree-zero part, if every pair of members of an
exhaustive family of graded simples is graded Euler-admissible, then the graded Cartan matrix in a
projective basis and a module basis indexed by the same finite type has determinant a unit of
ℤ[q,q⁻¹]. No splitting hypothesis on the field is needed.
