We investigate relative cohomology functors on subcategories of abelian categories via Auslander-Buchweitz approximations and the resulting strict resolutions. We verify that certain comparison maps between these functors are isomorphisms…
A new approach is suggested to characterize algebraically automorphisms of the category of free algebras of a given variety. It gives in many cases an answer to the problem set by the first of authors, if automorphisms of such a category…
We consider categories of relational structures that fully embed every category of universal algebras, and prove a partial characterisation of these in terms of an infinitary variant of the notion of nowhere density of Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il and…
Given a finite dimensional algebra over a perfect field the text introduces covering functors over the mesh category of any modulated Auslander-Reiten component of the algebra. This is applied to study the composition of irreducible…
We provide criteria for an Auslander-Reiten component having sections of a Krull-Schmidt category to be standard. Specializing to the category of finitely presented representations of a strongly locally finite quiver and its bounded derived…
We investigate the structure of certain almost split sequences in $\mathcal{P}(\Lambda)$, i.e., the category of morphisms between projective modules over an Artin algebra $\Lambda$. The category $\mathcal{P}(\Lambda)$ has very nice…
We study the existence and uniqueness of minimal right determiners in various categories. Particularly in a Hom-finite hereditary abelian category with enough projectives, we prove that the Auslander-Reiten-Smal{\o}-Ringel formula of the…
It was conjectured at the end of the book "Representation theory of Artin algebras" by M. Auslander, I. Reiten and S. Smalo that an Artin algebra with the property that its finitely generated indecomposable modules are up to isomorphism…
For a certain class of abelian categories, we show how to make sense of the "Euler characteristic" of an infinite projective resolution (or, more generally, certain chain complexes that are only bounded above), by passing to a suitable…
It is well known that for Auslander algebras, the category of all (finitely generated) projective modules is an abelian category and this property of abelianness characterizes Auslander algebras by Tachikawa theorem in 1974. Let $n$ be a…
We recall several results in Auslander-Reiten theory for finite-dimensional algebras over fields and orders over complete local rings. Then we introduce $n$-cluster tilting subcategories and higher theory of almost split sequences and…
We study the properties of rings satisfying Auslander-type conditions. If an artin algebra $\Lambda$ satisfies the Auslander condition (that is, $\Lambda$ is an $\infty$-Gorenstein artin algebra), then we construct two kinds of…
A simple criterion for a functor to be finitary is presented: we call $F$ finitely bounded if for all objects $X$ every finitely generated subobject of $FX$ factorizes through the $F$-image of a finitely generated subobject of $X$. This is…
Let $\mathscr{C}$ be a $(d+2)$-angulated category with $d$-suspension functor $\Sigma^d$. Our main results show that every Serre functor on $\mathscr{C}$ is a $(d+2)$-angulated functor. We also show that $\mathscr{C}$ has a Serre functor…
For an abelian category $\mathcal{A}$, we establish the relation between its derived and extension dimensions. Then for an artin algebra $\Lambda$, we give the upper bounds of the extension dimension of $\Lambda$ in terms of the radical…
Let $\mathscr{A}$ be a small abelian category. For a closed subbifunctor $F$ of $\Ext_{\mathscr{A}}^{1}(-,-)$, Buan has generalized the construction of the Verdier's quotient category to get a relative derived category, where he localized…
Given the pair of a dualizing $k$-variety and its functorially finite subcategory, we show that there exists a recollement consisting of their functor categories of finitely presented objects. We provide several applications for Auslander's…
We show that differential calculus (in its usual form, or in the general form of topological differential calculus) can be fully imdedded into a functor category (functors from a small category of anchord tangent algebras to anchored sets).…
A classification is provided of functors, in particular polynomial ones, from a category with a zero object in which every object is a finite sum of copies of a generating object, into an abelian category. This classification is extended to…
Lower bounds for the dimension of a triangulated category are provided. These bounds are applied to stable derived categories of Artin algebras and of commutative complete intersection local rings. As a consequence, one obtains bounds for…
