Abstract

We give a generalization of the classical tilting theorem. We show that for a 2-term silting complex P\mathbf{P} in the bounded homotopy category Kb(projA)K^b(\mathop{\rm proj}\nolimits A) of finitely generated projective modules of a finite dimensional algebra AA, the algebra B=EndKb(projA)(P)B = \mathop{\rm End}\nolimits_{K^b(\mathop{\rm proj}\nolimits A)}(\mathbf{P}) admits a 2-term silting complex Q\mathbf{Q} with the following properties: (i) The endomorphism algebra of Q\mathbf{Q} in Kb(projB)K^b(\mathop{\rm proj}\nolimits B) is a factor algebra of AA, and (ii) there are induced torsion pairs in modA\mathop{\rm mod}\nolimits A and modB\mathop{\rm mod}\nolimits B, such that we obtain natural equivalences induced by Hom\mathop{\rm Hom}\nolimits- and Ext\mathop{\rm Ext}\nolimits-functors. Moreover, we show how the Auslander-Reiten theory of modB\mathop{\rm mod}\nolimits B can be described in terms of the Auslander-Reiten theory of modA\mathop{\rm mod}\nolimits A.
