Abstract

In this paper, we construct a version of Auslander–Reiten sequences for the K(n)-local stable homotopy category. In particular, the role of the Auslander–Reiten translation is played by the local Brown–Comenetz duality functor. As an application, we produce counterexamples to the K(n)-local generating hypothesis for all heights n > 0 and all primes. Furthermore, our methods apply to other triangulated categories, as for example the derived category of quasi-coherent sheaves on a smooth projective scheme.
