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…

Reflexive functors of modules naturally appear in Algebraic Geometry, mainly in the theory of linear representations of group schemes, and in "duality theories". In this paper we study and determine reflexive functors and we give many…

Reflexive functors of modules naturally appear in Algebraic Geometry. In this paper we define a wide and elementary family of reflexive functors of modules, closed by tensor products and homomorphisms, in which Algebraic Geometry can be…

Let $R$, $S$ be two rings, $C$ an $R$-coring and ${}_{R}^C{\mathcal M}$ the category of left $C$-comodules. The category ${\bf Rep}\, ( {}_{R}^C{\mathcal M}, {}_{S}{\mathcal M} )$ of all representable functors ${}_{R}^C{\mathcal M} \to…

Let $(R,\my)$ be a noetherian local ring, $E$ the injective hull of $k=R/\my$ and $M^\circ=$ Hom$_R(M,E)$ the Matlis dual of the $R$-module $M$. If the canonical monomorphism $\varphi: M \to \moo$ is surjective, $M$ is known to be called…

Let X be a smooth complex manifold. Let Sol denote the solution functor for D-modules on X. Traditionally, the fully-faithfulness of Riemann-Hilbert correspondance is proved by showing that if M_1 and M_2 are regular holonomic D_X modules,…

Let R be a regular ring essentially of finite type over a perfect field k. An R-module M is called a unit R[F]-module if it comes equipped with an isomorphism F*M-->M where F denotes the Frobenius map on Spec R, and F* is the associated…

Suppose that $(\mathcal{F},\mathcal{M})$ is an injective structure of $R$-Mod such that the class $\mathcal{F}$ is closed for direct limits, then two modules in $\mathcal{M}$ are isomorphic if there are maps in $\mathcal{F}$ from each one…

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 $(K,M)$ be a pair satisfying some mild condition, where $K$ is a class of $R$-modules and $M$ is a class of $R$-homomorphisms. We show that if $f:A\rightarrow B$ and $g:B\rightarrow A$ are $M$-embeddings and $A,B$ are $K_M$-injective,…

We can define a module to be an exact functor on a small abelian category. This is explained and shown to be equivalent to the usual definition but it does offer a different perspective, inspired by the notions from model theory of…

A module $M$ is called an automorphism-invariant module if every isomorphism between two essential submodules of $M$ extends to an automorphism of $M$. This paper introduces the notion of dual of such modules. We call a module $M$ to be a…

We characterize the regularity of an FI-module using the derivative functors.

Let $R$ be an arbitrary ring with identity and $M$ a right $R$-module with $S =$ End$_R(M)$. In this paper we introduce dual $\pi$-Rickart modules as a generalization of $\pi$-regular rings as well as that of dual Rickart modules. The…

Let $R$ be a finite ring and let $M, N$ be two finite left $R$-modules. We present two distinct deterministic algorithms that decide in polynomial time whether or not $M$ and $N$ are isomorphic, and if they are, exhibit an isomorphism. As…

Watts's Theorem says that a right exact functor F:Mod R-->Mod S that commutes with direct sums is isomorphic to -\otimes_R B where B is the R-S-bimodule FR. The main result in this paper is the following: if A is a cocomplete abelian…

In this paper we show that the Rees algebra can be made into a functor on modules over a ring in a way that extends its classical definition for ideals. The Rees algebra of a module M may be computed in terms of a "maximal" map f from M to…
