The componentwise split exact structure on matrix factorizations #
Finite-projective matrix factorizations form an extension-closed full subcategory of curved duplexes of finitely generated modules with the componentwise split exact structure. The induced conflations split in each parity, but their splittings need not commute with the differentials. A componentwise split conflation with finite-projective middle term also has finite-projective outer terms. Consequently the disk presentations stay in this subcategory.
This is the exact structure used to identify the stable category with the matrix-factorization
homotopy category. It follows Frenkel, Khovanov and Schiffmann, Homological realization of
Nakajima varieties and Weyl group actions, Sections 2–3; the finite-projective formulation
follows Orlov, Triangulated categories of singularities and D-branes in Landau–Ginzburg
models, Sections 1.2 and 3. The construction reuses ExactStructure.fullSubcategory and the
componentwise exact structure on curved duplexes.
Finite-projective duplexes are closed under componentwise split extensions.
The finite-projective subcategory contains a zero duplex.
Finite projectivity of the two components is invariant under duplex isomorphisms.
The finite-projective subcategory is closed under binary products.
In a componentwise split conflation, projectivity of the middle components implies projectivity of both outer components, since each is a direct summand of the middle one.
The exact structure on finite-projective matrix factorizations whose conflations split on each underlying module, without requiring differential-compatible splittings.
