Abstract

τ\tau-tilting theory can be thought of as a generalization of the classical tilting theory which allows mutations at any indecomposable summand of a support τ\tau-tilting pair. Indeed, for any algebra Λ\Lambda its tilting modules tiltΛ\text{tilt}\,\Lambda form a subposet of the support τ\tau-tilting poset sτtiltΛ\text{s}\tau-\text{tilt}\,\Lambda. We show that conversely the τ\tau-tilting theory of an algebra Λ\Lambda can be naturally identified with the classical tilting theory of its duplicated algebra Λˉ\bar\Lambda by establishing a poset isomorphism sτtiltΛtiltΛˉ\text{s}\tau-\text{tilt}\,\Lambda\cong \text{tilt}\,\bar\Lambda. As a result, τ\tau-tilting theory may be considered to be a special case of tilting theory. This extends the results of Assem-Br\"ustle-Schiffler-Todorov in the case of hereditary algebras. We also show that the product sτtiltΛ×sτtiltΛ\text{s}\tau-\text{tilt}\,\Lambda\times \text{s}\tau-\text{tilt}\,\Lambda embeds into the support τ\tau-tilting poset of its duplicated algebra sτtiltΛˉ\text{s}\tau-\text{tilt}\,\bar\Lambda as a collection of Bongartz intervals. As an application we obtain a similar inclusion on the level of maximal green sequences.
