Let R be a Dedekind domain. In [6], Enochs’ solution of the Flat Cover Conjecture was extended as follows: (∗) If C is a cotorsion pair generated by a class of cotorsion modules, then C is cogenerated by a set. We show that (∗) is the best result provable in ZFC in case R has a countable spectrum: the Uniformization Principle UP implies that C is not cogenerated by a set whenever C is a cotorsi...

By the Telescope Conjecture for Module Categories, we mean the following claim: “Let R be any ring and (A,B) be a hereditary cotorsion pair in Mod-R with A and B closed under direct limits. Then (A,B) is of finite type.” We prove a modification of this conjecture with the word ‘finite’ replaced by ‘countable’. We show that a hereditary cotorsion pair (A,B) of modules over an arbitrary ring R is...

In the paper of Keller and Reiten, it was shown that the quotient of a triangulated category (with some conditions) by a cluster tilting subcategory becomes an abelian category. After that, Koenig and Zhu showed in detail, how the abelian structure is given on this quotient category, in a more abstract setting. On the other hand, as is well known since 1980s, the heart of any tstructure is abel...

let $mathcal {a}$ be an abelian category with enough projective objects and $mathcal {x}$ be a full subcategory of $mathcal {a}$. we define gorenstein projective objects with respect to $mathcal {x}$ and $mathcal{y}_{mathcal{x}}$, respectively, where $mathcal{y}_{mathcal{x}}$=${ yin ch(mathcal {a})| y$ is acyclic and $z_{n}yinmathcal{x}}$. we point out that under certain hypotheses, these two g...

Abstract We are interested in characterising the commutative rings for which a 1-tilting cotorsion pair (

We present a classification of those finite length modules X over a ring A which are isomorphic to every module Y of the same length such that Ker(HomA(−, X)) = Ker(HomA(−, Y )), i.e. X is determined by its length and the torsion pair cogenerated by X. We also prove the dual result using the torsion pair generated by X. For A right hereditary, we prove an analogous classification using the coto...

We give a characterization of Σ-cotorsion modules over valuation domains in terms of descending chain conditions on certain chains of definable subgroups. We prove that pure submodules, direct products and modules elementarily equivalent to a Σ-cotorsion module are again Σ-cotorsion. Moreover, we describe the structure of Σ-cotorsion modules.

Classical tilting theory generalizes Morita theory of equivalence of module categories. The key property – existence of category equivalences between large full subcategories of the module categories – forces the representing tilting module to be finitely generated. However, some aspects of the classical theory can be extended to infinitely generated modules over arbitrary rings. In this paper,...

Let R be a ring, M a right R-module, and n a fixed non-negative integer. M is called n-cotorsion if Extn+1 R N M = 0 for any flat right R-module N . M is said to be n-flat if ExtR M N = 0 for any n-cotorsion right R-module N . We prove that ( n n is a complete hereditary cotorsion theory, where n (resp. n) denotes the class of all n-flat (resp. n-cotorsion) right R-modules. Several applications...
