The two main theorems give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of Auslander-Reiten sequences in subcategories. Let M be a subcategory of mod A closed under extensions and direct summands, and let X be an indecomposable module in M such that Ext^{1}(X, X') is not zero for some X' in M. Then the following are equivalent: (i) DTrX has a precover in the stable category of mod A, (ii) There exists an Auslander-Reiten sequence 0 --> U --> W --> X --> 0 in M. We also have the dual result of the above theorem.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-11-03T17:54:35.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "16G70", "18E30" ], "keywords": [ "auslander-reiten sequence", "subcategory", "finite dimensional algebra", "dual result", "paper studies" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0911.0633N" } } }
