In this work we state conditions on a covariant right exact functor so that it commutes with direct limits. These conditions are related to the commutativity of the functor under direct limits of projective modules. We prove that if the…

Let $R$ be an associative ring with unit. Given an $R$-module $M$, we can associate the following covariant functor from the category of $R$-algebras to the category of abelian groups: $S\mapsto M\otimes_R S$. With the corresponding notion…

The object of this paper is to prove that the standard categories in which homotopy theory is done, such as topological spaces, simplicial sets, chain complexes of abelian groups, and any of the various good models for spectra, are all…

We obtain Morita invariant versions of Eilenberg-Watts type theorems, relating Deligne products of finite linear categories to categories of left exact as well as of right exact functors. This makes it possible to switch between different…

We will use Watts's theorem together with Lenzing's characterization of finitely presented modules via commuting properties of the induced tensor functor in order to study commuting properties of Ext-covariant functors.

We call a tensor functor $F:\mathcal{C}\to\mathcal{D}$ between finite tensor categories $\otimes$-Frobenius if its left and right adjoints are isomorphic as $\mathcal{C}$-bimodule functors. We give several characterizations of this notion…

Exact categories are a natural generalisation of abelian categories and provide a fertile ground to develop relative homological algebra. In this paper, starting from a class of relative Gorenstein projective objects in an exact category…

We show that direct summands of certain additive functors arising as bifunctors with a fixed argument in an abelian category are again of that form whenever the fixed argument has finite length or, more generally, satisfies the descending…

The categorical formulation of the Eilenberg-Watts calculus relates, for any pair of finite categories M and N, the finite categories Fun^{le}(N,M) and Fun^{re}(N,M) of linear left or right exact functors and the Deligne product \bar N…

Let $G= {\rm Spec} A$ be an affine $R$-monoid scheme. We prove that the category of dual functors (over the category of commutative $R$-algebras) of $G$-modules is equivalent to the category of dual functors of ${\mathcal A}^*$-modules. We…

Let $R$ be an associative ring with unit. This paper deals with various aspects of the category of functors of $\mathcal R$-modules; that is, the category of additive and covariant functors from the category of R-modules to the category of…

From a bimodule $M$ over an exact category $C$, we define an exact category $C\ltimes M$ with a projection down to $C$. This construction classifies certain split square zero extensions of exact categories. We show that the trace map…

In the theory of operads we consider functors of generalized symmetric powers defined by sums of coinvariant modules under actions of symmetric groups. One observes classically that the construction of symmetric functors provides an…

The Morita context provided by an exact module category over a finite tensor category gives a two-object bicategory with duals. Right and left duals of objects in the module category are given by internal Homs and coHoms, respectively. We…

We consider $\,R-$modules as functors in the following way: if $\,M\,$ is a (left) $R$-module, let $\,\mathcal M\,$ be the functor of $\,\mathcal R-$modules defined by $\,\mathcal M(S) := S \otimes_R M\,$ for every $\,R-$algebra $\,S$. With…

We point out that double categories provide a natural setting for modular functors obtained by a (bicategorical) string-net construction: The source of the modular functor -- which is now a double functor -- is a symmetric monoidal double…

As a special case of Bass' theory of perfect rings, one obtains the assertion that, over a finite-dimensional associative algebra over a field, all flat modules are projective. In this paper we prove the following relative version of this…

We define exact weights on a triangulated category to be nonnegative functions on objects satisfying a subadditivity condition with respect to exact triangles. Such weights induce a metric on objects in the triangulated category, which we…

Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a resolving and contravariantly finite subcategory of $\rm{mod}\mbox{-}\Lambda$, the category of finitely generated right $\Lambda$-modules. We associate to $\mathcal{X}$ the subcategory…

We show that, for a right exact functor from an abelian category to abelian groups, Yoneda's isomorphism commutes with homology and, hence, with functor derivation. Then we extend this result to semiabelian domains. An interpretation in…
