Gorenstein Projective Objects in Comma Categories (1911.04722v1)

Abstract: Let $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ be abelian categories and $\mathbf{F}:\mathcal{A}\to \mathcal{B}$ an additive and right exact functor which is perfect, and let $(\mathbf{F},\mathcal{B})$ be the left comma category. We give an equivalent characterization of Gorenstein projective objects in $(\mathbf{F},\mathcal{B})$ in terms of Gorenstein projective objects in $\mathcal{B}$ and $\mathcal{A}$. We prove that there exists a left recollement of the stable category of the subcategory of $(\mathbf{F},\mathcal{B})$ consisting of Gorenstein projective objects modulo projectives relative to the same kind of stable categories in $\mathcal{B}$ and $\mathcal{A}$. Moreover, this left recollement can be filled into a recollement when $\mathcal{B}$ is Gorenstein and $\mathbf{F}$ preserves projectives.
