Abstract
A polynomial f(T)∈Z[T] is represented by q(T)∈Z[T] if ; f(T) is graphically represented if for χM(T) the characteristic polynomial of a symmetric matrix M. Many instances of Coxeter polynomialsfA(T), for A a finite dimensional algebra, are (graphically) representable. We study the case of extended canonical algebras A, see [H. Lenzing, J.A. de la Peña, Extended canonical algebras and Fuchsian singularities, in press], show that the corresponding polynomials fA(T) are representable and satisfy a Chebysheff type recursion formula. We get consequences for the eigenvalues of the Coxeter transformation of A showing, for instance, that at most four eigenvalues may lie outside the unit circle.
