In 1981 Edgar Enochs conjectured that every module has a flat cover and finally proved this in 2001. Since then a great deal of effort has been spent on studying different types of covers, for example injective and torsion free covers. In…

Recently two different concepts of covers of acts over monoids have been studied. That based on coessential epimorphisms and that based on Enochs' definition of a flat cover of a module over a ring. Two recent papers have suggested that in…

We prove that the Flat Cover Conjecture holds for the category of (right) acts over any right-reversible monoid $S$, provided that the flat $S$-acts are closed under stable Rees extensions. The argument shows that the class…

Preenvelopes of acts over a monoid are defined by analogy with Enochs' definition of preenvelopes of modules. Provided that it is closed for pure subacts, a class of acts is shown to be preenveloping precisely when it is closed under direct…

The paper is devoted to the investigation of uniform notion for acts over semigroups perceived as an overclass of subdirectly irreducible acts. We establish conditions to fill the gap between these classes of acts. Besides we prove that…

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…

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…

This is the second in a series of articles surveying the body of work on the model theory of S-acts over a monoid S. The first concentrated on the theory of regular S-acts. Here we review the material on model-theoretic properties of free,…

Let A be a symmetric monoidal closed exact category. This category is a natural framework to define the notions of purity and flatness. We show that an object F in A is flat if and only if any conflation ending in F is pure. Furthermore, we…

This paper discusses necessary and sufficient conditions on a monoid S, such that the class of C-flat left $S$-acts is axiomatisable, where C is the class of all embeddings (of right ideals into S) of right S-acts. We consider the…

In this paper, we study the relationship between the two main categories of $S$-acts for a monoid $S$ with zero from the viewpoint of existence of projective covers and the equivalence is proven. Furthermore, monoids with zeros over which…

In 1992, David Wright proved a remarkable theorem about which contractible open manifolds are covering spaces. He showed that if a one-ended open manifold M has pro-monomorphic fundamental group at infinity which is not pro-trivial and is…

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…

If $\mathcal{C}$ is a cocomplete monoidal category in which tensoring from both sides preserves coequalizers, then the category of monoids over $\mathcal{C}$ is cocomplete. The same holds if $\mathcal{C}$ has regular factorizations and…

We show that every commutative idempotent monoid (a.k.a lattice) is the endomorphism monoid of a subcubic graph. This solves a problem of Babai and Pultr [J. Comb.~Theory, Ser.~B, 1980] and the degree bound is best-possible. On the other…

We discuss the set of subgroups of the automorphism group of a full shift, and submonoids of its endomorphism monoid. We prove closure under direct products in the monoid case, and free products in the group case. We also show that the…

We develop an explicit covering theory for complexes of groups, parallel to that developed for graphs of groups by Bass. Given a covering of developable complexes of groups, we construct the induced monomorphism of fundamental groups and…

The classical Eckmann-Hilton argument shows that two monoid structures on a set, such that one is a homomorphism for the other, coincide and, moreover, the resulting monoid is commutative. This argument immediately gives a proof of the…

This is a continuation of an earlier preprint (math.GT/0209121) under the same title. These papers grew out of an attempt to find a suitable finite sheeted covering of an aspherical 3-manifold so that the cover either has infinite or…

We continue our study of the monoid of right-veering diffeomorphisms on a compact oriented surface with nonempty boundary, introduced in [HKM2]. We conduct a detailed study of the case when the surface is a punctured torus; in particular,…
