Abstract:

We fix a base field k and all algebras are assumed to be basic k-algebras and regarded as finite locally bounded k-categories. We start from an original Galois covering of locally bounded k-categories with a group G defined by Gabriel, and generalize it to a G-covering C --> C' for an arbitrary k-categories with a G-action, which we characterize by using a canonical G-covering (P, f) from C to the orbit category C/G.

The orbit category construction will be extended to a 2-functor (-/G) from the 2-category G-Cat of small k-categories with G-action to the 2-category k-Cat of small k-categories, which will be characterized as a left adjoint to the diagonal 2-functor k-Cat --> G-Cat sending each small k-category to itself with the trivial G-action, and will be shown that the canonical G-covering (P, f) is a component of the unit of the adjoint. Noting that a G-action of a category C is nothing but a functor X from G as the category with a single object * to k-Cat with X(*) = C, the consideration above will be generalized to functors (or more generally colax functors) X from a small category I to the 2-category k-Cat, which is regarded as an I-diagram in k-Cat or an I-action on X(i)'s (i objects in I), and the collection of them can be extended to a 2-category Colax(I, k-Cat).

Then the orbit category construction is generalized to the Grothendieck construction Colax(I, k-Cat) --> k-Cat, X |--> Gr(X) (Note that Gr(X) is a single k-category for each X). The class of objects of Gr(X) is the union of the classes of objects of X(i)'s (i objects in I) and Gr(X) is regarded as a "gluing" of X(i)'s. We define a "module category" Mod X and a "derived module category" D(Mod X) of X in a natural way that leads us a definition of derived equivalences between X's. The main theorem states that if two colax functors X and X' from I to k-Cat are derived equivalent, then so are Gr(X) and Gr(X'), which enables us to glue derived equivalences between X(i) and X'(i) (i objects in I) together to have a derived equivalence between Gr(X) and Gr(X').
