The shift on the homotopy category of matrix factorizations #

The parity shift, which swaps the two components of a finite-projective matrix factorization and negates both maps, is a self-equivalence of the homotopy category HMF(S,w), here MatrixFactorization.HomotopyCategory. This file equips HMF(S,w) with the shift by ℤ that it generates, so that the shift by 1 is the parity shift.

This is the shift of Happel's triangulation. Finite-projective matrix factorizations with the componentwise split exact structure form a Frobenius exact category, and every factorization X has the relative injective presentation

X ⟶ diskSum X ⟶ X[1]

whose middle term is the contractible disk sum on the components of X and whose cokernel term is the parity shift X[1]. Since stable suspension may be computed from any relative injective presentation, stable suspension is the parity shift in the stable category. Consequently the equivalence MatrixFactorization.stableToHomotopy between the stable category and HMF(S,w) commutes coherently with the shifts by ℤ: the one generated by stable suspension and the one generated by the parity shift.

The shift by ℤ on the homotopy category of matrix factorizations generated by the parity shift.

Equations

The identification of the shift by 1 with the parity shift is the one carried by the shift generated by the parity-shift autoequivalence.

Every shift functor of the homotopy category of matrix factorizations is additive.

The image in the homotopy category of the parity shift of a factorization is the shift by 1 of its image, naturally.

    The componentwise split injective presentation X ⟶ diskSum X ⟶ X[1] of a matrix factorization: its middle term is the contractible disk sum on the components of X, and its cokernel term is the parity shift of X.

      In the stable category, the morphism induced by f on the cokernel terms of the disk-sum presentations is the parity shift of f.

      Stable suspension of matrix factorizations is the parity shift. For the componentwise split exact structure, the stable suspension of (the image of) a finite-projective matrix factorization is (the image of) its parity shift, naturally.

        The comparison from the componentwise split stable category to HMF(S,w) intertwines stable suspension with the parity shift.

          On the stable image of a factorization X, the intertwining isomorphism is the homotopy class of the map induced by the identity of X from the chosen suspension presentation to the disk-sum presentation.
