Let
be a radical-square zero algebra over an algebraically closed field k with radical
, and let
be the associated hereditary algebra. There is an explicit functor F: mod
mod
, which induces a stable equivalence. In this paper, it will be proved that the functor F preserves the Gabriel–Roiter (GR) measures and the GR factors. Thus the GR measure for
can be studied by the use of F and known facts for hereditary algebras. In particular, the middle terms of the Auslander–Reiten sequences ending at the GR factors and the relationship between the preprojective partition for
and the take-off
-modules will be investigated.
