Several authors have studied the filtered colimit closure lim(B) of a class B of finitely presented modules. Lenzing called lim(B) the category of modules with support in B, and proved that it is equivalent to the category of flat objects in the functor category (B^{op},Ab). In this paper, we study the category (Mod-R)^B of modules with cosupport in B. We show that (Mod-R)^B is equivalent to the category of injective objects in (B,Ab), and thus recover a classical result by Jensen-Lenzing on pure injective modules. Works of Angeleri-Hugel, Enochs, Krause, Rada, and Saorin make it easy to discuss covering and enveloping properties of (Mod-R)^B, and furthermore we compare the naturally associated notions of B-coherence and B-noetherianness. Finally, we prove a number of stability results for lim(B) and (Mod-R)^B. Our applications include a generalization of a result by Gruson-Jensen and Enochs on pure injective envelopes of flat modules.
We prove that any affine ring $R$ over a field $k$ has full cosupport, i.e., the cosupport of $R$ is equal to ${\rm Spec}\, R$. Using this fact, we give a complete description of all terms in a minimal pure-injective resolution of $R$, provided that $|k|=\aleph_1$ and ${\rm dim}\, R\geq 2$, or $|k|\geq \aleph_1$ and ${\rm dim}\, R=2$. As a corollary, we obtain a partial answer to a conjecture by Gruson.
Over a commutative noetherian ring $R$ of finite Krull dimension, we show that every complex of flat cotorsion $R$-modules decomposes as a direct sum of a minimal complex and a contractible complex. Moreover, we define the notion of a semi-flat-cotorsion complex as a special type of semi-flat complex, and provide functorial ways to construct a quasi-isomorphism from a semi-flat complex to a semi-flat-cotorsion complex. Consequently, every $R$-complex can be replaced by a minimal semi-flat-cotorsion complex in the derived category over $R$. Furthermore, we describe structure of semi-flat-cotors…
We describe how some aspects of abstract localization on module categories have applications to the study of injective comodules over some special types of corings. We specialize the general results to the case of Doi-Koppinen modules, generalizing previous results in this setting.
Holm (H. Holm, Modules with cosupport and injective functors, Algebr. Represent. Theor., 13 (2010), 543-560) considers categories of right modules dual to those with support in a set of finitely presented modules. We extend some of his results by placing them in the context of elementary duality on definable subcategories
Given a left noetherian k-algebra A graded by a group G, an injective object I in the category of G-graded A-modules and a morphism from G to another group G', we provide bounds for the injective dimension of I as a G'-graded A-module. For this, we use three change of grading functors. Most of the constructions concerning these functors work in the context of H-comodule algebras, where H is a Hopf algebra, so we develop them in this general context.
Let $H$ be a Hopf algebra over a field $k$, and $A$ an $H$-comodule algebra. The categories of comodules and relative Hopf modules are then Grothendieck categories with enough injectives. We study the derived functors of the associated Hom functors, and of the coinvariants functor, and discuss spectral sequences that connect them. We also discuss when the coinvariants functor preserves injectives.
Gorenstein homological dimensions are refinements of the classical homological dimensions, and finiteness singles out modules with amenable properties reflecting those of modules over Gorenstein rings. As opposed to their classical counterparts, these dimensions do not immediately come with practical and robust criteria for finiteness, not even over commutative noetherian local rings. In this paper we enlarge the class of rings known to admit good criteria for finiteness of Gorenstein dimensions: It now includes, for instance, the rings encountered in commutative algebraic geometry and, in the…
Our goal is to derive some families of maps, also known as functions, from injective maps and surjective maps; this can be useful in various fields of mathematics. Let A be a small concrete category. We define a functor F, cometic functor, from A to the category Set and a natural transformation π, called cometic projection, from F to the inclusion functor of A into Set such that the F-image of every monomorphism A is an injective map and the components of πare surjective maps. Also, we give a nontrivial application of F and π.
In this paper we study Rota-Baxter modules with emphasis on the role played by the Rota-Baxter operators and resulting difference between Rota-Baxter modules and the usual modules over an algebra. We introduce the concepts of free, projective, injective and flat Rota-Baxter modules. We give the construction of free modules and show that there are enough projective, injective and flat Rota-Baxter modules to provide the corresponding resolutions for derived functor.
Duality properties are studied for a Gorenstein algebra that is finite and projective over its center. Using the homotopy category of injective modules, it is proved that there is a local duality theorem for the subcategory of acyclic complexes of such an algebra, akin to the local duality theorems of Grothendieck and Serre in the context of commutative algebra and algebraic geometry. A key ingredient is the Nakayama functor on the bounded derived category of a Gorenstein algebra, and its extension to the full homotopy category of injective modules.
We study the coinduction functor on the category of FI-modules and its variants. Using the coinduction functor, we give new and simpler proofs of (generalizations of) various results on homological properties of FI-modules. We also prove that any finitely generated projective VI-module over a field of characteristic 0 is injective.
In this paper, we define a class of relative derived functors in terms of left or right weak flat resolutions to compute the weak flat dimension of modules. Moreover, we investigate two classes of modules larger than that of weak injective and weak flat modules, study the existence of covers and preenvelopes, and give some applications.
In this paper we consider the locally self-injective property of the product FI$^m$ of the category FI of finite sets and injections. Explicitly, we prove that the external tensor product commutes with the coinduction functor, and hence preserves injective modules. As corollaries, every projective FI$^m$-modules over a field of characteristic 0 is injective, and the Serre quotient of the category of finitely generated FI$^m$-modules by the category of finitely generated torsion FI$^m$-modules is equivalent to the category of finite dimensional FI$^m$-modules.
For a noetherian ring $Λ$, the stabilization functor in the sense of Krause yields an embedding of the singularity category of $Λ$ into the homotopy category of acyclic complexes of injective $Λ$-modules. When $Λ$ contains a semisimple artinian subring $E$, we give an explicit description of the stabilization functor using the Hom complexes in the $E$-relative singular Yoneda dg category of $Λ$.
A pair $(A, P)$ is called a cover of $\operatorname{End}_A(P)^{op}$ if the Schur functor $\operatorname{Hom}_A(P, -)$ is fully faithful on the full subcategory of projective $A$-modules, for a given projective $A$-module $P$. By definition, Morita algebras are the covers of self-injective algebras and then $P$ is a faithful projective-injective module. Conversely, we show that $A$ is a Morita algebra and $\operatorname{End}_A(P)^{op}$ is self-injective whenever $(A, P)$ is a cover of $\operatorname{End}_A(P)^{op}$ for a faithful projective-injective module $P$.
In this paper, we introduce the notions of ${\rm FP}_n$-injective and ${\rm FP}_n$-flat complexes in terms of complexes of type ${\rm FP}_n$. We show that some characterizations analogous to that of injective, FP-injective and flat complexes exist for ${\rm FP}_n$-injective and ${\rm FP}_n$-flat complexes. We also introduce and study ${\rm FP}_n$-injective and ${\rm FP}_n$-flat dimensions of modules and complexes, and give a relation between them in terms of Pontrjagin duality. The existence of pre-envelopes and covers in this setting is discussed, and we prove that any complex has an ${\rm FP…
We construct two functors from the submodule category of a self-injective representation-finite algebra $Λ$ to the module category of the stable Auslander algebra of $Λ$. These functors factor through the module category of the Auslander algebra of $Λ$. Moreover they induce equivalences from the quotient categories of the submodule category modulo their respective kernels and said kernels have finitely many indecomposable objects up to isomorphism. Their construction uses a recollement of the module category of the Auslander algebra induced by an idempotent and this recollement determines a ch…
Let R be a ring and let T be a hereditary torsion class of R-modules. The inclusion of the localizing subcategory generated by T into the derived category of R has a right adjoint, which is a colocalization. Benson has recently shown how to compute this right sdjoint when R is the group ring of a finite group over a prime field and T is the hereditary torsion class generated by a simple module. We generalize Benson's construction to the case where T is any hereditary torsion class on R. This yields an explicit formula for the colocalization with respect to T, using an injective cogenerator for…
For any ring R we construct two triangulated categories, each admitting a functor from R-modules that sends projective and injective modules to 0. When R is a quasi-Frobenius or Gorenstein ring, these triangulated categories agree with each other and with the usual stable module category. Our stable module categories are homotopy categories of Quillen model structures on the category of R-modules. These model categories involve generalizations of Gorenstein projective and injective modules that we derive by replacing finitely presented modules by modules of type FP-infinity. Along the way, we …
Let $Λ$ and $Γ$ be artin algebras and $_ΛU_Γ$ a faithfully balanced selforthogonal bimodule. In this paper, we first introduce the notion of $k$-Gorenstein modules with respect to $_ΛU_Γ$ and then characterize it in terms of the $U$-resolution dimension of some special injective modules and the property of the functors ${\rm Ext}^{i}({\rm Ext}^{i}(-, U), U)$ preserving monomorphisms, which develops a classical result of Auslander. As an application, we study the properties of dual modules relative to Gorenstein bimodules. In addition, we give some properties of $_ΛU_Γ$ with finite left or righ…
It is proved that, for a left hereditary ring, an arbitrary left module has a representation in the form of the direct sum of a stable left module and indecomposable projective left modules (if and only if an arbitrary left module has a representation in the form of the direct sum of a stable left module and a projective left module) if and only if the ring is left perfect and right coherent. In that case, the above-mentioned representations are unique up to isomorphism; the latter representation is also functorial. The essential ingredient in the proofs of the above-mentioned statements is a …
For a finite dimensional algebra $Λ$ of finite representation type and an additive generator $M$ for $\mathrm{mod}\,Λ$, we investigate the properties of the Yoneda algebra $Γ=\bigoplus_{i \geq 0}\mathrm{Ext}_Λ^i(M,M)$. We show that $Γ$ is graded coherent and Gorenstein of self-injective dimension at most $1$, and the graded singularity category $\mathrm{D_{sg}^\mathbb{Z}}(Γ)$ of $Γ$ is triangle equivalent to the derived category of the stable Auslander algebra of $Λ$. These results remain valid for representation-infinite algebras. For this we introduce the Yoneda category $\mathcal{Y}$ of $Λ$…
Slicing a module into semisimple ones is useful to study modules. Loewy structures provide a means of doing so. To establish the Loewy structures of projective modules over a finite dimensional symmetric algebra over a field $F$, the Landrock lemma is a primary tool. The lemma and its corollary relate radical layers of projective indecomposable modules to radical layers of the $F$-duals of those modules ("dual symmetry") and to socle layers of those modules ("reciprocity"). We generalize these results to an arbitrary finite dimensional algebra $A$. Our main theorem, which is the same as the La…
We establish a number of results which say, roughly, that interpretation functors preserve algebraic complexity. First we show that representation embeddings between categories of modules of finite-dimensional algebras induce embeddings of lattices of pp formulas and hence are non-decreasing on Krull-Gabriel dimension and uniserial dimension. A consequence is that the category of modules of any wild finite-dimensional algebra has width $\infty$ and hence, if the algebra is countable, there is a superdecomposable pure-injective representation. It is conjectured that a stronger result is true: t…
Let $(\mathfrak{C},\mathbb{E},\mathfrak{s})$ be an Ext-finite, Krull-Schmidt and $k$-linear extriangulated category with $k$ a commutative artinian ring. We define an additive subcategory $\mathfrak{C}_r$ (respectively, $\mathfrak{C}_l$) of $\mathfrak{C}$ in terms of the representable functors from the stable category of $\mathfrak{C}$ modulo $\mathfrak{s}$-injectives (respectively, $\mathfrak{s}$-projectives) to $k$-modules, which consists of all $\mathfrak{s}$-projective (respectively, $\mathfrak{s}$-injective) objects and objects isomorphic to direct summands of finite direct sums of all th…
