The distinguished stable socle extension in a finite functor category #
At a nonprojective indecomposable endpoint over an algebraically closed field, the residue map of the local endomorphism algebra descends to projective-stable endomorphisms and takes the stable identity to one. The finite-representable stable Hom--Ext formula transports this functional to a nonzero extension class. Pullback along every nonretraction kills that class, so every short exact realization has a right almost-split terminal map.
Instances For
If a composite is a retraction, its right factor is a retraction.
A nonzero scalar multiple of the identity is a retraction.
At a scalar-endomorphism object, every nonretraction endomorphism is zero.
The local endomorphism-algebra residue descends to projective-stable endomorphisms of a nonprojective indecomposable.
Instances For
The distinguished extension class selected by the stable identity.
Instances For
The distinguished class is nonzero.
Every nonretraction pullback of the distinguished class vanishes.
A nonzero extension class annihilated by all nonretraction pullbacks makes every representing short exact sequence right almost split.
A realization of the distinguished stable socle class has right almost-split quotient map.
The distinguished class has a realization whose quotient map is right almost split.
