The Kaplansky-Walker Lemma for additive categories

Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: We establish a Kaplansky-Walker type lemma for idempotent complete additive categories with direct sums. It will be used in compactly generated triangulated categories to provide a version of Kaplansky's theorem on projective modules and an isomorphism-refinement result for direct sums of countable objects.
