We consider the preservation of properties of being finitely generated, being finitely presented and being residually finite under direct products in the context of different types of algebraic structures. The structures considered include…
The extension dimensions of an Artin algebra give a reasonable way of measuring how far an algebra is from being representation-finite. In this paper we mainly study extension dimensions linked by recollements of derived module categories…
We study thick subcategories of the category of 2-term complexes of projective modules over an associative algebra. We show that those thick subcategories that have enough injectives are in explicit bijection with 2-term silting complexes…
A certain amount of category theory is developed in an arbitrary finitely complete category with a factorization system on it, playing the role of the comprehensive factorization system on Cat. Those aspects related to the concepts of…
We introduce and investigate (dual) relative split objects with respect to a fully invariant short exact sequence in abelian categories. We compare them with (dual) relative Rickart objects, and we study their behaviour with respect to…
A perfect structure is a triple $(M,P,S)$ of matrices $M, P$ and $S$ of consistent sizes such that $MP = PS$. Perfect structures comprise similar matrices, eigenvectors, perfect colorings (equitable partitions) and graph coverings. In this…
A notion of heaps of modules as an affine version of modules over a ring or, more generally, over a truss, is introduced and studied. Basic properties of heaps of modules are derived. Examples arising from geometry (connections, affine…
We describe how some aspects of abstract localization on module categories have applications to the study of injective comodules over some special types of corings. We specialize the general results to the case of Doi-Koppinen modules,…
We look at spaces of infinite-by-infinite matrices, and consider closed subsets that are stable under simultaneous row and column operations. We prove that up to symmetry, any of these closed subsets is defined by finitely many equations.
Rump has recently showed the existence of a unique maximal Quillen exact structure on any additive category. We study when this is given by the stable short exact sequences, i.e. kernel-cokernel pairs consisting of a semi-stable kernel and…
We introduce the Picard group of corings. We extend the well-known exact sequence from algebras and coalgebras over fields to corings. We extend the Aut-Pic property to corings and we give some new examples of corings having this property.…
We give a construction that identifies the collection of pure processes (i.e. those which are deterministic, or without randomness) within a theory containing both pure and mixed processes. Working in the framework of symmetric monoidal…
Motivated by some problems proposed by Cuadra and Simson related to flat objects in finitely accessible Grothendieck categories, we study flatness in the more general setting of finitely accessible additive categories. For such category…
We investigate whether the group algebra of a finite group over a localisation of the integers is semiperfect. The main result is a necessary and sufficient arithmetic criterion in the ordinary case. In the modular case, we propose a…
We deal with the category of finitely generated modules over an artin algebra $A$. Recall that an object in an abelian category is said to be a brick provided its endomorphism ring is a division ring. Simple modules are, of course, bricks,…
\emph{Proto-exact categories}, introduced by Dyckerhoff and Kapranov, are a generalization of Quillen exact categories which provide a framework for defining algebraic K-theory and Hall algebras in a \emph{non-additive} setting. This…
We aim at studying collections of algebraic structures defined over a commutative ring and investigating the complexity of significant constructions carried out on these objects. The assignment of measures of size, via a multiplicity…
Let $\mathcal{E}$ be a weakly idempotent complete exact category with enough injective and projective objects. Assume that $\mathcal{M} \subseteq \mathcal{E}$ is a rigid, contravariantly finite subcategory of $\mathcal{E}$ containing all…
In a coherent category, the posets of subobjects have very strong properties. We emphasize the validity of these properties, in general categories, for well-behaved classes of subobjects. As an example of application, we investigate the…
We explain why the naive definition of a natural exact category structure on complete, separated topological vector spaces with linear topology fails. In particular, contrary to arXiv:0711.2527, the category of such topological vector…
