Homotopy categories of admissible model structures on extriangulated categories
Abstract
The extriangulated category is a simultaneous generalization of exact categories and triangulated categories. H. Nakaoka and Y. Palu have proved that the homotopy category of an admissible model structure on a weakly idempotent complete extriangulated category is a triangulated category. Using the classic construction of distinguished triangles given by A. Heller and D. Happel, this paper provides an alternative proof of Nakaoka - Palu Theorem. In fact, the class $Δ$ of distinguished triangles in the present paper and the class $\widetildeΔ$ of distinguished triangles in \cite{NP} have the relation $Δ= - \widetildeΔ$, and hence the two triangulated structures on the homotopy category are isomorphic.
