Triangulated Categories

Abstract

Over the last few decades triangulated categories have become increasingly important, to the extent that they can now be viewed as a unifying theory underlying major parts of modern mathematics. This 2010 collection of survey articles, written by leading experts, covers fundamental aspects of triangulated categories, as well as applications in algebraic geometry, representation theory, commutative algebra, microlocal analysis and algebraic topology. These self-contained articles are a useful introduction for graduate students entering the field and a valuable reference for experts.
