Abstract

We prove that, for any n2n \geq 2, the classes of FPn\rm{FP}_{n}-injective modules and of FPn\rm{FP}_n-flat modules are both covering and preenveloping over any ring RR. This includes the case of FP\rm{FP}_{\infty}-injective and FP\rm{FP}_{\infty}-flat modules (i.e. absolutely clean and, respectively, level modules). Then we consider a generalization of the class of (strongly) Gorenstein flat modules - the (strongly) Gorenstein AC-flat modules (cycles of exact complexes of flat modules that remain exact when tensored with any absolutely clean module). We prove that some of the properties of Gorenstein flat modules extend to the class of Gorenstein AC-flat modules; for example we show that this class is precovering over any ring RR. We also show that (as in the case of Gorenstein flat modules) every Gorenstein AC-flat module is a direct summand of a strongly Gorenstein AC-flat module. When RR is such that the class of Gorenstein AC-flat modules is closed under extensions, the converse is also true. We also prove that if the class of Gorenstein AC-flat modules is closed under extensions, then this class of modules is covering.
