We consider homomorphisms of complete, separated right or two-sided linear topological rings with countable bases of neighborhoods of zero $\mathfrak f\colon\mathfrak R\to\mathfrak S$. Taut maps of right linear topological rings, strongly…

We introduce a method for associating a chain complex to a module over a combinatorial category, such that if the complex is exact then the module has a rational Hilbert series. We prove homology--vanishing theorems for these complexes for…

We introduce the notion of a "category with path objects", as a slight strengthening of Kenneth Brown's classic notion of a "category of fibrant objects". We develop the basic properties of such a category and its associated homotopy…

We define the completion of an associative algebra $A$ in a set $M=\{M_1,\dots,M_r\}$ of $r$ right $A$-modules in such a way that if $\mathfrak a\subseteq A$ is an ideal in a commutative ring $A$ the completion $A$ in the (right) module…

Let $R$ be a noetherian commutative ring, and \[ \mathbb F: ...\rightarrow F_2\rightarrow F_1\rightarrow F_0\rightarrow 0 \] a complex of flat $R$-modules. We prove that if $\kappa(\mathfrak p)\otimes_R\mathbb F$ is acyclic for every…

Connections between heaps of modules and (affine) modules over rings are explored. This leads to explicit, often constructive, descriptions of some categorical constructions and properties that are implicit in universal algebra and…

We show that categories of modules over a ring in Homotopy Type Theory (HoTT) satisfy the internal versions of the AB axioms from homological algebra. The main subtlety lies in proving AB4, which is that coproducts indexed by arbitrary sets…

In prior work we described how the Cuntz-Pimsner construction may be viewed as a functor. The domain of this functor is a category whose objects are $C^*$-correspondences and morphisms are isomorphism classes of certain pairs comprised of a…

We characterize noncommutative Frobenius algebras A in terms of the existence of a coproduct which is a map of left A^e-modules. We show that the category of right (left) comodules over A, relative to this coproduct, is isomorphic to the…

For a category C we investigate the problem of when the coproduct $\bigoplus$ and the product functor $\prod$ from C^I to C are isomorphic for a fixed set I, or, equivalently, when the two functors are Frobenius functors. We show that for…

A morphism of a category which is simultaneously an epimorphism and a monomorphism is called a bimorphism. In \cite{DR2} we gave characterizations of monomorphisms (resp. epimorphisms) in arbitrary pro-categories, pro-(C), where (C) has…

We prove in ZFC that if $G$ is a (right) $R$-module such that the groups $\Hom_R(\prod_{i\in I}G_i,G)$ and $\prod_{i\in I}\Hom_R(G_i,G)$ are naturally isomorphic for all families of $R$-modules $(G_i)_{i\in I}$ then G=0. The result is valid…

Let $M$ be a left module for the Schur algebra $S(n,r)$, and let $s \in \mathbb{Z}^+$. Then $M^{\otimes s}$ is a $(S(n,rs), F\mathfrak{S}_s)$-bimodule, where the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_s$ on $s$ letters acts on the right by place…

Let $R$ be a ring and $M$ be a right $R$-module. $M$ is called neat-flat if any short exact sequence of the form $0\to K\to N\to M\to 0$ is neat-exact i.e. any homomorphism from a simple right $R$-module $S$ to $M$ can be lifted to $N$. We…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over a field $k$. Let $R:= \text{End}\, E$. There is a functor $\mathscr{H}\!\!\mathit{om}_R(-,E)$ from the category of finitely presented torsion-free left $R$-modules to the category of abelian varieties…

For a commutative ring $S$ and self-orthogonal subcategory $\mathsf{C}$ of $\mathsf{Mod}(S)$, we consider matrix factorizations whose modules belong to $\mathsf{C}$. Let $f\in S$ be a regular element. If $f$ is $M$-regular for every $M\in…

In this paper, we classify additive closed symmetric monoidal structures on the category of left R-modules by using Watts' theorem. An additive closed symmetric monoidal structure is equivalent to an R-module Lambda_{A,B} equipped with two…

The notions of faithfully projective, faithfully flat, and faithfully injective modules--defined as modules for which the three classical homological functors are both faithful and exact--play fundamental roles across various areas of…

Assume that abelian categories $A, B$ over a field admit countable direct limits and that these limits are exact. Let $F: D^+_{dg}(A) --> D^+_{dg}(B)$ be a DG quasi-functor such that the functor $Ho(F): D^+(A) \to D^+(B)$ carries $D^{\geq…
