Tilting theory and functor categories II: generalized tilting

Martínez-Villa, Roberto; Ortiz-Morales, Martin;

Abstract:

In this paper we continue the project of generalizing tilting theory to the category of contravariant functors Mod(C), from a skeletally small preadditive category C to the category of abelian groups, initiated in [15]. We introduce the notion of a generalized tilting category T, and we concentrate here on extending Happel's theorem to Mod(C); more specifically, we prove that there is an equivalence of triangulated categories D-b (Mod(C)) congruent to D-b (Mod(T)). We then add some restrictions on our category C, in order to obtain a version of Happel's theorem for the categories of finitely presented functors. We end the paper proving that some of the theorems for artin algebras, relating tilting with contravariantly finite categories proved in Auslander and Reiten (Adv Math 12(3): 306-366, 1974; Adv Math 86(1): 111-151, 1991), can be extended to the category of finitely presented functors mod(C), with C a dualizing variety.
