Abstract

For any ring RR, the Auslander-Gruson-Jensen functor is the exact contravariant functor DA:fp(Mod(R),Ab)(mod(Rop),Ab)\textsf{D}_A:\textsf{fp}(\textsf{Mod}(R),\textsf{Ab})\longrightarrow(\textsf{mod}(R^{op}),\textsf{Ab}) sending representable functors (X,  )(X,\hspace{0.05cm}\underline{\ \ }\hspace{0.1cm} ) to tensor functors X  X\otimes\hspace{0.05cm}\underline{\ \ }\hspace{0.1cm} . We show that this functor admits a fully faithful left adjoint DL\textsf{D}_L and a fully faithful right adjoint DR\textsf{D}_R. The left adjoint DL(mod(Rop),Ab)fp(Mod(R),Ab)\textsf{D}_L\:(\textsf{mod}(R^{op}),\textsf{Ab})\longrightarrow \textsf{fp}(\textsf{Mod}(R),\textsf{Ab}) induces an equivalence of categories fp(Mod(R),Ab){F  DAF=0}(mod(Rop),Ab)op\frac{\textsf{fp}(\textsf{Mod}(R),\textsf{Ab})}{\{F\ |\ \textsf{D}_A F=0\}}\cong(\textsf{mod}(R^{op}),\textsf{Ab})^{op} where {F  DAF=0}\{F \ |\ \textsf{D}_A F=0\} is the Serre subcategory of fp(Mod(R),Ab)\textsf{fp}(\textsf{Mod}(R),\textsf{Ab}) consisting of all functors FF arising from pure exact sequences. As a result, the functor DA\textsf{D}_A is seen to be a Serre localization functor. The right adjoint DR:(mod(Rop),Ab)fp(Mod(R),Ab)\textsf{D}_R:(\textsf{mod}(R^{op}),\textsf{Ab})\longrightarrow \textsf{fp}(\textsf{Mod}(R),\textsf{Ab}) together with DA\textsf{D}_A restricts to the well known Auslander-Gruson-Jensen duality.
