We present applications of contramodule techniques to the Enochs conjecture about covers and direct limits, both in the categorical tilting context and beyond. In the $n$-tilting-cotilting correspondence situation, if $\mathsf A$ is a…

Mittag-Leffler modules occur naturally in algebra, algebraic geometry, and model theory, [18], [12], [17]. If $R$ is a non-right perfect ring, then it is known that in contrast with the classes of all projective and flat modules, the class…

We show that a direct limit of projective contramodules (over a right linear topological ring) is projective if it has a projective cover. A similar result is obtained for $\infty$-strictly flat contramodules of projective dimension not…

Enochs Conjecture asserts that each covering class of modules (over any ring) has to be closed under direct limits. Although various special cases of the conjecture have been verified, the conjecture remains open in its full generality. In…

Enochs' conjecture asserts that each covering class of modules (over any fixed ring) has to be closed under direct limits. Although various special cases of the conjecture have been verified, the conjecture remains open in its full…

We study Mittag-Leffler conditions on modules providing relative versions of classical results by Raynaud and Gruson. We then apply our investigations to several contexts. First of all, we give a new argument for solving the Baer splitting…

For any set of modules S, we prove the existence of precovers (right approximations) for all classes of modules of bounded C-resolution dimension, where C is the class of all S-filtered modules. In contrast, we use infinite dimensional…

We show that if a class of modules is closed under pure quotients, then it is precovering if and only if it is covering, and this happens if and only if it is closed under direct sums. This is inspired by a dual result by Rada and…

We show that over any ring, the double Ext-orthogonal class to all flat Mittag-Leffler modules contains all countable direct limits of flat Mittag-Leffler modules. If the ring is countable, then the double orthogonal class consists…

We prove that the class of Gorenstein injective modules, $\mathcal{GI}$, is special precovering if and only if it is covering if and only if it is closed under direct limits. This adds to the list of examples that support Enochs'…

The classes $\mathcal D _{\mathcal Q}$ of flat relative Mittag-Leffler modules are sandwiched between the class $\mathcal F \mathcal M$ of all flat (absolute) Mittag-Leffler modules, and the class $\mathcal F$ of all flat modules. Building…

Drinfeld recently suggested to replace projective modules by the flat Mittag--Leffler ones in the definition of an infinite dimensional vector bundle on a scheme $X$. Two questions arise: (1) What is the structure of the class $\mathcal D$…

Recently the author has studied rings for which products of flat modules have finite flat dimension. In this paper we extend the theory to characterize when products of modules in $\mathcal T$ have finite $\mathcal T$-projective dimension,…

Let $A$ be an artinian algebra, and let $\mathcal{C}$ be a subcategory of mod$A$ that is closed under extensions. When $\mathcal{C}$ is closed under kernels of epimorphisms (or closed under cokernels of monomorphisms), we describe the…

Assume that $R$ is a non-right perfect ring. Then there is a proper class of classes of (right $R$-) modules closed under transfinite extensions lying between the classes $\mathcal P _0$ of projective modules, and $\mathcal F _0$ of flat…

We investigate when the categories of all rational $A$-modules and of finite dimensional rational modules are closed under extensions inside the category of $C^*$-modules, where $C^*$ is the cofinite topological completion of $A$. We give a…

We classify 1-tilting classes over an arbitrary commutative ring. As a consequence, we classify all resolving subcategories of finitely presented modules of projective dimension at most 1. Both these collections are in 1-1 correspondence…

In this expository paper, we present a construction of tree modules and combine it with (infinite dimensional) tilting theory and relative Mittag-Leffler conditions in order to explore limits of the approximation theory of modules. We also…

Let $\mathcal C$ be a class of modules and $\mathcal L = \varinjlim \mathcal C$ the class of all direct limits of modules from $\mathcal C$. The class $\mathcal L$ is well understood when $\mathcal C$ consists of finitely presented modules:…

We study some closely interrelated notions of Homological Algebra: (1) We define a topology on modules over a not-necessarily commutative ring $R$ that coincides with the $R$-topology defined by Matlis when $R$ is commutative. (2) We…
