Factoring matrix-factorization homotopies through disks #
The disk sum on the two components of a finite-projective matrix factorization is again finite projective. Every null-homotopic morphism factors through this contractible object, and every map factoring through it is null-homotopic. A contractible factorization is therefore a retract of such a sum. These facts are the factorization input for comparing the homotopy category with the stable category of the componentwise split exact structure.
The disk sum is functorial (diskSumMap), and the projection diskSumToParityShift onto the
parity shift completes the inclusion toDiskSum to a componentwise split short complex
X ⟶ diskSum X ⟶ X[1], which presents the stable suspension of X.
The disk construction follows Frenkel, Khovanov and Schiffmann, Homological realization of Nakajima varieties and Weyl group actions, Sections 2–3.
The direct sum of the odd disk and the parity-shifted even disk of a matrix factorization.
Both components are the finite projective module X₁ ⊞ X₀.
