Summary

We give a brief introduction to the representation theory of finite-dimensional algebras via quivers and Auslander–Reiten theory. We describe the knitting algorithm, which gives a way to compute the Auslander–Reiten quiver of many algebras of finite-representation type. We also present recent work on the description of the representation theory of gentle and skew-gentle algebras via the geometry of oriented surfaces with boundary. An application of these geometric models is given in the context of τ-tilting theory.
