Tilted algebras, that is endomorphism algebras of tilting modules over a hereditary algebra, have been one of the main objects of study in representation theory of algebras since their introduction by Happel and Ringel [10]. As a generalization, Happel, Reiten and Smalø studied endomorphism algebras of tilting objects of a hereditary abelian category which they call quasi-tilted algebras [9]. T...
