Thick Subcategories of Discrete Derived Categories

Representation Theory 2016-08-25 v1

Abstract

We classify the thick subcategories of discrete derived categories. To do this we introduce certain generating sets called arc-collections which correspond to configurations of non-crossing arcs on a geometric model. We show that every thick subcategory is generated by an arc-collection, each thick subcategory is determined by the topology of the corresponding configuration, and we describe a version of mutation which acts transitively on the set of arc-collections generating a given thick subcategory.
