On the structure of Calabi-Yau categories with a cluster tilting subcategory (Q2369718): Difference between revisions

In the last view years a theory of \(d\)-Calabi-Yau categories emerged, motivated by the recent developments around cluster algebras. A triangulated category is \(d\)-Calabi-Yau if it admits a Serre functor \(\Sigma\) which is isomorphic to \(S^d\), the \(d\)-th power of the suspension functor. A cluster tilting subcategory \({\mathcal T}\) of a \(d\)-Calabi-Yau category \({\mathcal C}\) is a \(k\)-linear, functorially finite subcategory satisfying \(\text{Ext}^i(X,X')=0\) for \(0<i<d\) and objects \(X\) and \(X'\) of \(T\), and \(\text{Ext}^i(X,Y)=0\) for \(0<i<d\) and all objects \(X\) of \({\mathcal T}\) implies that \(Y\) is in \({\mathcal T}\) as well. The paper under review shows that a \(d\)-Calabi-Yau category \({\mathcal C}\) admitting a \(d\)-cluster tilting subcategory \(T\) is equivalent to the stable category of a differential graded category, which is itself a \(d+1\)-Calabi-Yau category carrying a \(t\)-structure with heart having enough projectives. The proof is highly involved, using Quillen model categories, Brown's representability theorem and various constructions of quite sophisticated intermediate categories.
