Abstract: We prove that certain triangulated categories are (weakly) approximable in the sense of A. Neeman. We prove that a triangulated C that is compactly generated by a single object G is weakly approximable if C(G,G[i])=0 for i>1 (we say that G is weakly negative if this assumption is fulfilled; the case where the equality C(G,G[1])=0 is fulfilled as well was mentioned by Neeman himself). Moreover, if and C(Gi,Gj[1])=0 whenever ilej then C is also approximable. The latter result can be useful since (under a few more additional assumptions) it allows to characterize a certain explicit subcategory of C as the category of finite cohomological functors from the subcategory Cc of compact objects of C into R-modules (for a noetherian commutative ring R such that C is R-linear). One may apply this statement to the construction of certain adjoint functors and t-structures. Our proof of (weak) approximability of C under the aforementioned assumptions is closely related to (weight decompositions for) certain (weak) weight structures, and we discuss this relationship in detail.
