Abstract

This paper studies the combinatorics of lattice congruences of the weak order on a finite Weyl group $W$ , using representation theory of the corresponding preprojective algebra $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F1}$ . Natural bijections are constructed between important objects including join-irreducible congruences, join-irreducible (respectively, meet-irreducible) elements of $W$ , indecomposable $\unicode[STIX]{x1D70F}$ -rigid (respectively, $\unicode[STIX]{x1D70F}^{-}$ -rigid) modules and layers of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F1}$ . The lattice-theoretically natural labelling of the Hasse quiver by join-irreducible elements of $W$ is shown to coincide with the algebraically natural labelling by layers of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F1}$ . We show that layers of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F1}$ are nothing but bricks (or equivalently stones, or 2-spherical modules). The forcing order on join-irreducible elements of $W$ (arising from the study of lattice congruences) is described algebraically in terms of the doubleton extension order. We give a combinatorial description of indecomposable $\unicode[STIX]{x1D70F}^{-}$ -rigid modules for type $A$ and  $D$ .
