On the cogeneration of \(t\)-structures (Q706351)

The author gives a general method to construct \(t\)-structures on triangulated categories, covering results obtained by various authors. The main results reads as follows. If \({\mathcal T}\) is a triangulated category with coproducts, \(S\) is a set of perfect objects, and \({\mathcal U}_S\) is the smallest cocomplete suspended subcategory which contains \(S\), then \(({\mathcal U}_S, {\mathcal U}_S^\perp[1])\) is a \(t\)-structure on \({\mathcal T}\). As a corollary, it is shown that if \({\mathcal T}\) is compactly generated, \(C\) is a set of compact objects, \(I\) is an injective cogenerator in \({\mathcal M}od\,C\), and \({\mathcal T}_CI\) is the dual of \(C\), then \(({}^\perp{}_{{\mathcal T}_CI}{\mathcal U},{}_{{\mathcal T}_CI}{\mathcal U}[1])\) is a \(t\)-structure on \({\mathcal T}\). Moreover, necessary and sufficient conditions are given for \(C\) to be a tilting set.
