The three-dimensional Ginzburg differential graded algebra of a quiver with potential #
Let Q be a finite quiver and W ∈ kQ a potential, typically a linear combination of cycles;
only its cycles matter, since the cyclic derivative of a path which is not a cycle vanishes. The
three-dimensional Ginzburg differential graded algebra Γ₃(Q, W) is the path algebra of the
Ginzburg quiver TauCeti.GinzburgQuiver Q (the doubled quiver of Q with one extra loop t_i at
every vertex), graded cohomologically by putting
- the original arrows
aofQin degree0, - their formal reverses
a*in degree-1, and - the adjoined loops
t_iin degree-2,
with the degree +1 graded derivation d given on the arrows by
d a = 0, d a* = ∂_a W, d t_i = ρ_i = ∑_{head a = i} a a* - ∑_{tail a = i} a* a,
where ∂_a is the cyclic derivative TauCeti.PathAlgebra.cyclicDerivative and ρ_i the local
preprojective relator TauCeti.localPreprojectiveRelator. The words a a* and a* a are read in
Tau Ceti's later-factor-first convention, as in the two-dimensional Ginzburg algebra of
TauCeti.Algebra.Homology.Ginzburg.Basic.
The quiver is the one of the two-dimensional Ginzburg algebra Π₂(Q), but the grading and the
differential differ, so the two differential graded algebras are distinct. The square of d
vanishes on a and on a* because the path algebra of Q consists of cycles of d; on t_i,
d (d t_i) = ∑_{head a = i} a ∂_a W - ∑_{tail a = i} ∂_a W a,
which vanishes by the local cyclic identity

The cohomological degree of an arrow of the Ginzburg quiver in the three-dimensional
Ginzburg algebra: the original arrows of Q sit in degree 0, their formal reverses in degree
-1, and the adjoined loops in degree -2.
Equations
Instances For
The path algebra of Q lands in cohomological degree 0: it is generated by the original
arrows, all of which have degree 0.
The relator assigned to an arrow in the three-dimensional Ginzburg differential of (Q, W):
zero on the original arrows, the cyclic derivative ∂_a W on the reverse a* of an arrow a,
and the local preprojective relator at the vertex of an adjoined loop.

Instances For
The three-dimensional Ginzburg differential of (Q, W): the degree +1 graded derivation
which kills the original arrows, sends the reverse a* of an arrow a to the cyclic derivative
∂_a W, and sends the loop t_i to the local preprojective relator ρ_i.

The three-dimensional Ginzburg Leibniz rule against an arrow.
The original arrows are cycles of the three-dimensional Ginzburg differential.
The differential of the reverse a* of an arrow a is the cyclic derivative ∂_a W.
The differential of the adjoined loop t_i is the local preprojective relator ρ_i.
The path algebra of Q consists of cycles: the differential kills every original arrow,
hence every path in them.
The differential graded algebra #
The three-dimensional Ginzburg differential graded algebra Γ₃(Q, W): the path algebra of
the Ginzburg quiver, graded by TauCeti.ginzburgThreeDegree, with the Ginzburg differential of the
potential W.
The Leibniz rule for the three-dimensional Ginzburg differential on a left factor
homogeneous of cohomological degree m.
The square of the three-dimensional Ginzburg differential vanishes.
The three-dimensional Ginzburg differential only depends on the potential up to cyclic
equivalence: adding a commutator x y - y x to W does not change it.
