Abstract

We study the problem of classifying triangulated categories with finite-dimensional morphism spaces and finitely many indecomposables over an algebraically closed field. We obtain a new proof of the following result due to Xiao and Zhu: the Auslander-Reiten quiver of such a category is of the form ZΔ/G\mathbb{Z}\Delta/G where Δ\Delta is a disjoint union of simply laced Dynkin diagrams and GG a weakly admissible group of automorphisms of ZΔ\mathbb{Z}\Delta. Then we prove that for `most' groups GG, the category \T\T is standard, \emph{i.e.} kk-linearly equivalent to an orbit category Db(\moddkΔ)/Φ\mathcal{D}^b(\modd k\Delta)/\Phi. This happens in particular when \T\T is maximal dd-Calabi-Yau with d2d\geq2. Moreover, if \T\T is standard and algebraic, we can even construct a triangle equivalence between \T\T and the corresponding orbit category. Finally we give a sufficient condition for the category of projectives of a Frobenius category to be triangulated. This allows us to construct non standard 1-Calabi-Yau categories using deformed preprojective algebras of generalized Dynkin type.
