A characterization of triangulated structures induced by premutation triples
Abstract
Let (๐ฎ,๐ต,๐ฑ) be a premutation triple in an extriangulated category. Set โ=๐ฎโฉ๐ต=๐ตโฉ๐ฑ. Iitsuka introduced premutation triples as a unified framework for various mutation constructions and showed that the quotient category ๐ต/[โ] admits a canonical pretriangulated structure. In this paper, we prove that the compatibility condition (MT4) is not only sufficient but also necessary for this structure to be triangulated. Therefore, (MT4) precisely characterizes when Iitsuka's canonical pretriangulated structure becomes triangulated. Furthermore, we prove that, for concentric twin cotorsion pairs, the compatibility condition used by Nakaoka in the construction of triangulated quotients is equivalent to (MT4). Finally, we construct an explicit reducible triple which is not a mutation triple. This gives a negative answer to a question posed by Iitsuka.
