Homogeneity implies Tameness
  Let $\Lambda$ be a finite-dimensional basic algebra over an algebraically closed field $k$. The well-known Drozd's theorem asserts, that $\Lambda$ is either tame or wild. The Crawley-Boevey's Theorem states that for a given tame algebra $\Lambda$, and for each dimension $d$ almost all isomorphism classes of indecomposable $\Lambda$-modules of dimension $d$ are isomorphic to their Auslander-Reiten translations and hence belong to homogeneous tubes. In this paper we prove the converse of Crawley-Boevey's Theorem and thus give an internal description of tameness in terms of AR-quivers. This gives a complete answer to a question posed by Ringel in \cite{R1}.
