Recollements, coproducts and products in extriangulated categories

Alejandro Argudín-Monroy, Octavio Mendoza, Carlos E. Parra

TL;DR

This paper defines and analyzes AET4 and AET4$^*$, natural analogues of AB4/AB4$^*$ in the framework of extriangulated categories. It provides multiple equivalent characterizations via natural maps on higher extension groups, universal $ ext{E}$-extensions, and coproduct-compatibility, and develops a robust adjoint-pair/coproduct machinery to study product- and coproduct-compatibility in extriangulated settings. The authors apply these ideas to hearts of intervals, $t$-structures, and smashing/co-smashing phenomena, establishing conditions under which extended hearts inherit AET4(AET4$^*$) and relating these properties to recollements of extriangulated categories. An appendix develops higher extension theory and adjoint-pair interactions without assuming projective/injective objects, facilitating dualizable results and broader applicability in exact, triangulated, and tilted/heart-structured contexts.

Abstract

We introduce a notion similar to the AB4 (resp. AB4{*}) condition for abelian categories but in the context of extriangulated categories. We will refer to this notion as AET4 (resp. AET4{*}). One of our main results shows equivalent statements for AET4 (resp. AET4{*}), which generalize statements commonly used in homological constructions in abelian categories. As an application, we will give conditions for a recollement $(\mathcal{A},\mathcal{B},\mathcal{C})$ of extriangulated categories with $\mathcal{B}$ AET4 (resp. AET4{*}) to imply that the categories $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{C}$ are AET4 (resp. AET4{*}); and we will show a relation between the $n$-smashing (resp. $n$-co-smashing) condition for a $t$-structure and the AET4 (resp. AET4{*}) condition of the extended hearts of the $t$-structure. It is also included an appendix where we study in detail the properties of adjoint pairs between extriangulated categories which are necessary for the development of the paper, including some special properties for higher extension groups.

TL;DR

This paper defines and analyzes AET4 and AET4, natural analogues of AB4/AB4 in the framework of extriangulated categories. It provides multiple equivalent characterizations via natural maps on higher extension groups, universal -extensions, and coproduct-compatibility, and develops a robust adjoint-pair/coproduct machinery to study product- and coproduct-compatibility in extriangulated settings. The authors apply these ideas to hearts of intervals, -structures, and smashing/co-smashing phenomena, establishing conditions under which extended hearts inherit AET4(AET4) and relating these properties to recollements of extriangulated categories. An appendix develops higher extension theory and adjoint-pair interactions without assuming projective/injective objects, facilitating dualizable results and broader applicability in exact, triangulated, and tilted/heart-structured contexts.

Key Result

Lemma 2.1

Let $A=\coprod_{i=1}^{n}A_{i}$ and $B=\coprod_{i=1}^{m}B_{i}$ in $\mathcal{C}.$ Then, the map $\Phi_{B,A}^{F}:F(A,B)\to\mathrm{Mat}_{m\times n}^{F}(A,B),$ defined by $[\Phi_{B,A}^{F}(x)]_{i,j}:=\pi_{i}^{B}\cdot x\cdot\mu_{j}^{A},$ is an isomorphism of abelian groups whose inverse is $(\Phi_{B,A}^{F}
