%0 Journal Article %T On Auslander-Reiten components of algebras without external short paths %A Alicja Jaworska %A Piotr Malicki %A Andrzej Skowro¨˝ski %J Mathematics %D 2011 %I arXiv %R 10.1112/jlms/jdr034 %X We describe the structure of semi-regular Auslander-Reiten components of artin algebras without external short paths in the module category. As an application we give a complete description of self-injective artin algebras whose Auslander-Reiten quiver admits a regular acyclic component without external short paths. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1112.0852v1
