In this paper we are going to use a result of H. Harada and Y. Sai concerning composition of nonisomorphisms between indecomposable modules and the theory of almost split sequences introduced in the representation theory of Artin algebras by M. Auslander and I. Reiten to obtain the inductive step in the second Brauer-Thrall conjecture.Section 1 is devoted to giving the necessary background in the theory of almost split sequences.As an application we get the first Brauer-Thrall conjecture for Artin algebras. This conjecture says that there is no bound on the length of the finitely generated indecomposable modules over an Artin algebra of infinite type, i.e., an Artin algebra such that there are infinitely many nonisomorphic indecomposable finitely generated modules. This result was first proved by A. V. Roiter [8] and later in general for Artin rings by M. Auslander [2] using categorical methods.
