Abstract

Geiss, Keller and Oppermann (2013) introduced the notion of n-angulated category, which is a “higher dimensional” analogue of triangulated category, and showed that certain (n-2)-cluster tilting subcategories of triangulated categories give rise to n-angulated categories. We define mutation pairs in n-angulated categories and prove that given such a mutation pair, the corresponding quotient category carries a natural n-angulated structure. This result generalizes a theorem of Iyama-Yoshino (2008) for triangulated categories.
