Triangulated categories

Optional research direction: additive categories with a shift functor and distinguished triangles satisfying Verdier's axioms, including the octahedral axiom; examples from derived and stable homotopy categories; t-structures and their hearts.

Aprenderás a

  • State Verdier's axioms and derive basic consequences, such as long exact Hom sequences.
  • Show that K(A) and D(A) are triangulated.
  • Define t-structures and identify A with the heart of the standard t-structure on D(A).

Definición

  • A triangulated category is an additive category with an autoequivalence [1] and a class of distinguished triangles X → Y → Z → X[1] satisfying Verdier's axioms, including the octahedral axiom.
  • A t-structure is a pair of full subcategories (D^{≤0}, D^{≥0}) satisfying truncation axioms; its heart D^{≤0} ∩ D^{≥0} is an abelian category.

Teorema

  • Hom(W, −) sends distinguished triangles to long exact sequences of abelian groups.
  • The heart of every t-structure is abelian (Beilinson, Bernstein and Deligne).
  • Cones are unique only up to non-unique isomorphism, a defect that motivates enhancements such as dg-categories and stable ∞-categories.

Errores frecuentes

  • Thinking the cone construction is functorial in a triangulated category; in general it is not.
  • Believing every triangulated category is the homotopy category of a stable ∞-category; Muro, Schwede and Strickland found triangulated categories without such models.
