Wide coreflective subcategories and torsion pairs

Representation Theory 2023-04-04 v1

Abstract

We revisit a construction of wide subcategories going back to work of Ingalls and Thomas. To a torsion pair in the category R-mod R\operatorname{-}\operatorname{mod} of finitely presented modules over a left artinian ring RR, we assign two wide subcategories in the category R-Mod R\operatorname{-}\operatorname{Mod} of all RR-modules and describe them explicitly in terms of an associated cosilting module. It turns out that these subcategories are coreflective, and we address the question of which wide coreflective subcategories can be obtained in this way. Over a tame hereditary algebra, they are precisely the categories which are perpendicular to collections of pure-injective modules.
