let r be an associative ring with identity, c(r) be the category of com-plexes of r-modules and flat(c(r)) be the class of all at complexes of r-modules. we show that the at cotorsion theory (flat(c(r)); flat(c(r))−)have enough injectives in c(r). as an application, we prove that for each atcomplex f and each complex y of r-modules, exti (f,x)= 0, whenever ris n-perfect and i > n.

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...

The purpose of this paper is to describe a connection between model categories, a structure invented by algebraic topologists that allows one to introduce the ideas of homotopy theory to situations far removed from topological spaces, and cotorsion pairs, an algebraic notion that simultaneously generalizes the notion of projective and injective objects. In brief, a model category structure on a...

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,...

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.

Let R be an associative ring with identity. It is shown that every Σ -cotorsion left R-module satisfies the descending chain condition on divisibility formulae. If R is countable, the descending chain condition on M implies that it must be Σ -cotorsion. It follows that, for countable R, the class of Σ -cotorsion modules is closed under elementary equivalence and pure submodules. The modules M t...

In this paper, we introduce a dimension, called the cotorsion dimension, for modules and rings. The relations between the cotorsion dimension and other dimensions are discussed. Various results are developed, some extending known results.

We study localizations of an extriangulated category B and localizations of hearts of twin cotorsion pairs on B. We also give a generalized nearly Morita equivalence between the certain localizations of hearts of cotorsion pairs.

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...
