Tilting theory for Gorenstein rings in dimension one

Abstract

For a $Z$-graded Gorenstein ring $R$, we study the stable category $C{M}^{Z}R$ of $Z$-graded maximal Cohen-Macaulay $R$-modules, which is canonically triangle equivalent to the singularity category of Buchweitz and Orlov. Its thick subcategory given as the stable category of $C{M}_0^{Z}R$ is central in representation theory since it enjoys Auslander-Reiten-Serre duality and has almost split triangles. In the case $dimR=1$, we prove that the stable category of $C{M}_0^{Z}R$ always admits a silting object, and that it admits a tilting object if and only if either $R$ is regular or the $a$-invariant of $R$ is non-negative.
