Abstract

Presilting and silting subcategories in extriangulated categories were introduced by Adachi and Tsukamoto recently. In this paper, we prove that the Gabriel-Zisman localization B/(thickW)\mathcal B/({\rm thick}\mathcal W) of an extriangulated category B\mathcal B with respect to a presilting subcategory W\mathcal W satisfying certain condition can be realized as a subfactor category of B\mathcal B. This generalizes the result by Iyama-Yang for silting reduction on triangulated categories. Then we discuss the relation between silting subcategories and tilting subcategories in extriangulated categories, this gives us a kind of important examples of our results. In particular, for a finite dimensional Gorenstein algebra, we get the relative version of the description of the singularity category due to Happel and Chen-Zhang by this reduction.
