A subquiver is a subgraph of a quiver. Specifically, it is formed by selecting a subset $I$ of the arrows from the original quiver, ensuring that the tails and heads of the chosen arrows align with the selected vertices. In this context, there are two ways to approach a subquiver. One approach is to recall the original quiver and represent the subquiver as a subset of its arrows and vertices, denoted as $Q^I$. The flow of the resultant quiver will be zero along the arrows not in $I$. Alternatively, we can disregard the original quiver and focus solely on the arrows and vertices of the new subquiver, represented as $Q_I$. The weight of the new quiver $Q_I$ is derived from the flows of the original quiver $Q$.
The two methods corresponding to these ideas are referenced in the examples below.
