Abstract: Extriangulated category was introduced by Nakaoka and Palu to give a unification of properties in exact categories and triangulated categories. A notion of tilting (or cotilting) subcategories in an extriangulated category is defined in this paper. We give a Bazzoni characterization of tilting (or cotilting) subcategories and obtain an Auslander-Reiten correspondence between tilting (cotilting) subcategories and coresolving covariantly (resolving contravariantly, resp.) finite subcatgories which are closed under direct summands and satisfies some cogenerating (generating, resp.) conditons. Applications of the results are given: we show that tilting (cotilting) subcategories defined here unify many previous works about tilting theory in module categories of Artin algebras and abelian categories admitting a cotorsion triples; we also show that the results work for triangulated categories with a proper class of triangles introduced by Beligiannis.


In mathematics, especially representation theory, classical tilting theory describes a way to relate the module categories of two algebras using so-called tilting modules and associated tilting functors. Classical tilting theory was motivated by the reflection functors introduced by \textit{I. N. Bernshteĭn} et al. [Russ. Math. Surv. 28, No. 2, 17--32 (1973; Zbl 0279.08001)]. These functors were reformulated by \textit{M. Auslander} et al. [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 250, 1--46 (1979; Zbl 0421.16016)], and generalized by \textit{S. Brenner} and \textit{M. C. R. Butler} [Lect. Notes Math. 832, 103--169 (1980; Zbl 0446.16031)]. The notion of extriangulated categories was introduced by \textit{H. Nakaoka} and \textit{Y. Palu} [Cah. Topol. Géom. Différ. Catég. 60, No. 2, 117--193 (2019; Zbl 1451.18021)] as a simultaneous generalization of exact categories and triangulated categories. There are some other examples of extriangulated categories which are neither exact nor triangulated. Hence, many results on exact categories and triangulated categories can be unified in the same framework. Motivated by this idea, the authors introduce tilting subcategories in an extriangulated category and study their properties. This enables us to treat the tilting theory and its generalizations appeared before in a uniform way. More precisely, they obtain \textit{S. Bazzoni}'s characterization [J. Algebra 273, No. 1, 359--372 (2004; Zbl 1051.16007)] of tilting (resp. cotilting) subcategories and the Auslander-Reiten correspondence between tilting (resp. cotilting) subcategories and coresolving covariantly (resp. resolving contravariantly) finite subcatgories in the extriangulated category. Finally, the authors also give many applications.
