Categorical indecomposability from a local endomorphism ring #

In a preadditive category with binary biproducts, a local endomorphism ring forces categorical indecomposability. This is a bounded adaptation of the generic lemma in the donor's RepresentationDirected/IyamaWordMeshAdditiveHull.lean at commit d5ba0c48e7a851afd51247ff9cd81fc629e00ed2; no word-mesh layer is imported.

theorem MagnitudeConjecture.CategoryTheory.indecomposable_iff_of_iso {C : Type u} [CategoryTheory.Category.{v, u} C] [CategoryTheory.Preadditive C] [CategoryTheory.Limits.HasBinaryBiproducts C] {X Y : C} (e : X ≅ Y) :
CategoryTheory.Indecomposable X ↔ CategoryTheory.Indecomposable Y

Categorical indecomposability is invariant under isomorphism.

theorem MagnitudeConjecture.CategoryTheory.indecomposable_op_iff {C : Type u} [CategoryTheory.Category.{v, u} C] [CategoryTheory.Preadditive C] [CategoryTheory.Limits.HasBinaryBiproducts C] (X : C) :
CategoryTheory.Indecomposable (Opposite.op X) ↔ CategoryTheory.Indecomposable X

Passing to the opposite category preserves and reflects categorical indecomposability.

CategoryTheory.Indecomposable X

A fully faithful additive functor reflects indecomposability from the image of an object.

CategoryTheory.Indecomposable (F.obj X) ↔ CategoryTheory.Indecomposable X

An additive equivalence preserves and reflects indecomposability.

CategoryTheory.Indecomposable X

A nontrivial local endomorphism ring rules out a nontrivial binary biproduct decomposition.

IsLocalRing S

Localness transports across a ring equivalence without a commutativity hypothesis.
