We show that the free module of infinite rank $R^{(\kappa)}$ purely embeds every $\kappa$-generated flat left $R$-module iff $R$ is left perfect. Using a Bass module corresponding to a descending chain of principal right ideals, we…
By the Telescope Conjecture for Module Categories, we mean the following claim: "Let R be any ring and (A, B) be a hereditary cotorsion pair in Mod-R with A and B closed under direct limits. Then (A, B) is of finite type." We prove a…
The long standing Lech's conjecture in commutative algebra states that for a flat local extension $(R,\mathfrak{m})\to (S,\mathfrak{n})$ of Noetherian local rings, we have an inequality on the Hilbert--Samuel multiplicities: $e(R)\leq…
We investigate the question of when free structures of infinite rank (in a variety) possess model-theoretic properties like categoricity in higher power, saturation, or universality. Concentrating on left $R$-modules we show, among other…
In this note I take the opportunity to correct the last statement of Part I of same title and continue the study of uniform purity of epimorphisms in order to derive the main result, which states that--provided $R_R\in \langle\cal…
Both the original Temperley-Lieb algebras $\mathsf{TL}_{n}$ and their dilute counterparts $\mathsf{dTL}_{n}$ form families of filtered algebras: $\mathsf{TL}_{n}\subset \mathsf{TL}_{n+1}$ and $\mathsf{dTL}_{n}\subset\mathsf{dTL}_{n+1}$, for…
It is demonstrated that any almost-tilting module over a gentle algebra is indeed partial-tilting, meaning it can be completed as a tilting module. Furthermore, such a module has at most $2n$ possible complements, thereby confirming a…
We obtain a characterization of left perfect rings via superstability of the class of flat left modules with pure embeddings. $\mathbf{Theorem.}$ For a ring $R$ the following are equivalent. - $R$ is left perfect. - The class of flat left…
For a module-finite algebra over a commutative noetherian ring, we give a complete description of flat cotorsion modules in terms of prime ideals of the algebra, as a generalization of Enochs' result for a commutative noetherian ring. As a…
Definable subcategories may be extended along a ring homomorphism directly, by using their defining conditions in the new module category, or by tensoring up with the new ring. We investigate what is preserved and reflected by these…
In this paper we introduce a special kind of relative (co)resolutions associated to a pair of classes of objects in an abelian category $\mathcal{C}.$ We will see that, by studying these relative (co)resolutions, we get a possible…
Very flat and contradjusted modules naturally arise in algebraic geometry in the study of contraherent cosheaves over schemes. Here, we investigate the structure and approximation properties of these modules over commutative noetherian…
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…
We introduce a relative tilting theory in abelian categories and show that this work offers a unified framework of different previous notions of tilting, ranging from Auslander-Solberg relative tilting modules on Artin algebras to…
In this note, we are working within the category $\rmod$ of (unitary, left) $R$-modules, where $R$ is a {\bf countable} ring. It is well known (see e.g. Kie{\l}pi\'nski & Simson [5], Theorem 2.2) that the latter condition implies that the…
Let R be a countable, principal ideal domain which is not a field and A be a countable R-algebra which is free as an R-module. Then we will construct an aleph_1-free R-module G of rank aleph_1 with endomorphism algebra End_RG=A . Clearly…
The Countable Telescope Conjecture arose in the framework of stable homotopy theory, as a tool conceived to study the chromatic filtration. It turned out, however, to trigger extremely fertile research within the framework of Module…
We revisit faithfully balanced modules. These are faithful modules having the double centralizer property. For finite-dimensional algebras our main tool is the category ${\rm cogen}^1(M)$ of modules with a copresentation by summands of…
The ascent and descent of the Mittag-Leffler property were instrumental in proving Zariski locality of the notion of an (infinite dimensional) vector bundle by Raynaud and Gruson in \cite{RG}. More recently, relative Mittag-Leffler modules…
The property of countable metacompactness of a topological space gets its importance from Dowker's 1951 theorem that the product of a normal space X with the unit interval is again normal iff X is countably metacompact. In a recent paper,…
