Let (C,E,s) be an extriangulated category with a proper class ξ of E-triangles and X a resolving subcategory of C. In this paper, we introduce the notion of X-resolution dimension relative to the subcategory X in C, and then give some descriptions of objects with finite X-resolution dimension. In particular, we obtain Auslander-Buchweitz approximations for these objects. As applications, we construct adjoint pairs for two kinds of inclusion functors, and construct a new resolving subcategory from a given resolving subcategory which reformulates some known results.
We study ideal approximation theory associated to almost n-exact structures in extension closed subcategories of n-angulated categories. For n = 3, an n-angulated category is nothing but a classical triangulated category. Moreover, since every exact category can be embedded as an extension closed subcategory of a triangulated category, therefore, our approach extends the recent ideal approximations theories developed by Fu, Herzog et al. for exact categories and by Breaz and Modoi for triangulated categories.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
