Triangulated quotient categories
arXiv:1204.2024
Abstract
A notion of mutation of subcategories in a right triangulated category is defined in this paper. When (Z,Z) is a D-mutation pair in a right triangulated category C, the quotient category Z/D carries naturally a right triangulated structure. More-over, if the right triangulated category satisfies some reasonable conditions, then the right triangulated quotient category Z/D becomes a triangulated category. When C is triangulated, our result unifies the constructions of the quotient triangulated categories by Iyama-Yoshino and by Jørgensen respectively.
