We prove that the silting reduction $\\mathcal B/({\\rm thick}\\mathcal W)$ of an extriangulated category $\\mathcal B$ with respect to a pre-silting subcategory $\\mathcal W$ can be realized as a certain subfactor category of $\\mathcal B$. This generalizes the result by Iyama-Yang. In particular, for a Gorenstein algebra, we get the relative version of the description of the singularity category due to Happel and Chen-Zhang by this reduction.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-08-18T03:54:17.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "extriangulated category", "silting reduction", "subfactor category", "singularity category", "gorenstein algebra" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 24, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
