Abstract

Let K:k be a field extension and let Λ be a finite-dimensional k-algebra. We investigate the relationship between Λ and ΛK = Λ⊗k K with particular emphasis on various aspects of τ-tilting theory and bricks. We show that many types of objects for Λ lift injectively to the same type of object for ΛK, and many common constructions in τ-tilting theory commute with the process of extending the base field. One of our main applications is the construction of a faithful functor from the τ-cluster morphism category \mathfrakW(Λ) of Λ to the τ-cluster morphism category \mathfrakW(ΛK) of ΛK. In particular, this establishes a faithful functor from \mathfrakW(Λ) to a group whenever k is of characteristic zero which has many important consequences. In the appendix, E. J. Hanson shows the analogous result whenever k is a finite field. Moreover, we give some nontrivial examples to illustrate the behaviour of τ-tilting finiteness under base field extension.
