The principal-localizing-subcategory conjecture
The principal-localizing-subcategory conjecture
A localizing subcategory of the stable homotopy category is a thick subcategory closed under coproducts. For a spectrum , its collection of acyclics consists of spectra with .
Principal-localizing-subcategory conjecture. Every localizing subcategory is the collection of -acyclics for some spectrum , and is therefore principal.
The source calls this the basic conjecture about localizing subcategories and notes that, together with Ohkawa's result, it would imply that there is only a set of localizing subcategories. No resolution is given.
