The four-subspace quiver has four one-dimensional sources and a two-dimensional sink. Its Tits form of a quiver at this dimension vector is .
An endomorphism comprises source scalars and a sink matrix . The first two columns force . The third column then forces , making scalar. Since the fourth column is always nonzero, its scalar is also the same, for every .
Thus , so the representation is a brick module. The Ringel form givesThis conclusion also covers , where the fourth line repeats one of the earlier lines; the first three lines already force scalar endomorphisms.
