On cycles of length three

We prove that if A is a string algebra then there are not three irreducible morphisms between indecomposable A-modules such that its composition belongs to R\R, whenever the compositions of two of them are not in R. Moreover, for any positive integer n ≥ 3, we show that there are n irreducible morphisms such that their composition is in R\R.
