The $N$-Stable Category (2109.07728v2)

Abstract: A well-known theorem of Buchweitz provides equivalences between three categories: the stable category of Gorenstein projective modules over a Gorenstein algebra, the homotopy category of acyclic complexes of projectives, and the singularity category. To adapt this result to $N$-complexes, one must find an appropriate candidate for the $N$-analogue of the stable category. We identify this "$N$-stable category" via the monomorphism category and prove Buchweitz's theorem for $N$-complexes over a Frobenius exact abelian category. We also compute the Serre functor on the $N$-stable category over a self-injective algebra and study the resultant fractional Calabi-Yau properties.
