Generalized Brown representability in homotopy categories

Category Theory 2009-12-03 v3

Abstract

We show that the homotopy category of a combinatorial stable model category \ck\ck is well generated. It means that each object KK of \Ho(\ck)\Ho(\ck) is an iterated weak colimit of λ\lambda-compact objects for some cardinal λ\lambda. A natural question is whether each KK is a weak colimit of λ\lambda-compact objects. We show that this is related to (generalized) Brown representability of \Ho(K)\Ho(\mathcal K).

Comments

This is the correction of the original submission which was published in Theory Appl. Categ. 14 (2005), 451-479. Propositions 4.2 and 4.3 from the original submission are not correct. Thus the claims of Theorems 5.4, 5.7 and their Corollaries 5.8, 5.9 and 5.10 remain open. I am grateful to J. F. Jardine and F. Muro for pointing it out
