Abstract: For a suitable triangulated category mathcalT with a Serre functor S and a full precovering subcategory mathcalC closed under summands and extensions, an indecomposable object C in mathcalC is called Ext-projective if Ext1(C,mathcalC)=0. Then there is no Auslander-Reiten triangle in mathcalC with end term C. In this paper, we show that if, for such an object C, there is a minimal right almost split morphism in mathcalC, then C appears in something very similar to an Auslander-Reiten triangle in mathcalC: an essentially unique triangle in mathcalT of the form �egin{align*} Delta= Xxrightarrow{xi} Bxrightarrow{�eta} C ightarrow Sigma X, end{align*} where X is an indecomposable not in mathcalC and xi is a mathcalC-envelope of X. Moreover, under some extra assumptions, we show that removing C from mathcalC and replacing it with X produces a new subcategory of mathcalT closed under extensions. We prove that this process coincides with the classic mutation of mathcalC with respect to the rigid subcategory of mathcalC generated by all the indecomposable Ext-projectives in mathcalC apart from C. When mathcalT is the cluster category of Dynkin type An and mathcalC has the above properties, we give a full description of the triangles in mathcalT of the form Delta and show under which circumstances replacing C by X gives a new extension closed subcategory.
