Throughout, by an algebra we mean a basic connected, finite-dimensional associative K-algebra with 1 over an algebraically closed field K. By a module over an algebra A we mean a right A-module of finite K-dimension. From Drozd’s remarkable Tame and Wild Theorem [14] the class of algebras may be divided into two disjoint classes. One class consists of tame algebras for which the indecomposable modules occur, in each dimension d, in a finite number of discrete and a finite number of one-parameter families. The second class is formed by the wild algebras whose representation theory is as complicated as the study of finite-dimensional vector spaces together with two non-commuting endomorphisms, for which the classification is a well-known unsolved problem. Hence, we can hope to classify the modules only for tame algebras. Here, we are concerned with the representation theory of tame algebras having simply connected Galois coverings. Among tame algebras we may distinguish the class of representation-finite algebras, having only finitely many isomorphism classes of indecomposable modules. This class of algebras is presently rather well understood (see [3], [8], [9], [10]). In particular, we know that every representation-finite algebra A admits a standard form A [10], which is the best possible degeneration of A, such that A and A have the same number of isomorphism classes of indecomposable modules, and A admits a (strongly) simply connected Galois covering. This leads to the criterion of Bongartz for finite representation type [8], and reduces the study of modules over arbitrary representation-finite algebras to that for the corresponding simply connected algebras. The representation theory of tame representation-infinite algebras is only emerging. At present the most accessible seem to be the (tame) algebras of polynomial growth [26], for which there exists a positive integer m such that the number of one-parameter families of indecomposable modules is bounded, in each dimension d, by d. It contains the class of domestic al-
