Flat objects of a finitely accessible additive category are described in terms of some objects of the associated functor category of , called strongly flat functors. We study closure properties of the class of strongly flat functors, and we use them to deduce the known result that every object of a finitely accessible abelian category has a flat cover.

AbstractLet R→U be an associative ring epimorphism such that U is a flat left R-module. Assume that the related Gabriel topology $\mathbb{G}$ of right ideals in R has a countable base. Then we show that the left R-module U has projective dimension at most 1. Furthermore, the abelian category of left contramodules over the completion of R at $\mathbb{G}$ fully faithfully embeds into the Geigle–Lenzing right perpendicular subcategory to U in the category of left R-modules, and every object of the latter abelian category is an extension of two objects of the former one. We discuss conditions under which the two abelian categories are equivalent. Given a right linear topology on an associative ring R, we consider the induced topology on every left R-module and, for a perfect Gabriel topology $\mathbb{G}$, compare the completion of a module with an appropriate Ext module. Finally, we characterize the U-strongly flat left R-modules by the two conditions of left positive-degree Ext-orthogonality to all left U-modules and all $\mathbb{G}$-separated $\mathbb{G}$-complete left R-modules.

AbstractWe give a partial answer to the following questions: Given an additive category and a class of sequences, under what conditions is the universal functor to the abelian category faithful and what other sequences are taken to exact sequences?The “answers” to these questions appear as theorems 2.2 and 3.2 respectively and amount to a weakening of the condition that there be enough relative projectives.We then characterize those additive categories with exactness which have the property that all relative exact sequences are determined by a small set of functors into the category of abelian groups.

We provide comprehensive, level-by-level characterizations of large cardinals, in the range from weakly compact to strongly compact, by closure properties of powerful images of accessible functors. In the process, we show that these properties are also equivalent to various forms of tameness for abstract elementary classes. This systematizes and extends results of [W. Boney and S. Unger, Large cardinal axioms from tameness in AECs, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 145(10) (2017) 4517–4532; A. Brooke-Taylor and J. Rosický, Accessible images revisited, Proc.

AbstractLet 𝒞 be a finitely accessible additive category with products, and let (Ui)i∈Ibe a family of representative classes of finitely presented objects in 𝒞 such that each objectUiis pure-injective. We show that 𝒞 is a Krull–Schmidt category if and only if every pure epimorphic image of the objectsUiis pure-injective.

For a small abelian category [Formula: see text], Auslander’s formula allows us to express [Formula: see text] as a quotient of the category [Formula: see text] of coherent functors on [Formula: see text]. We consider an abelian category with the added structure of a cohereditary torsion pair [Formula: see text]. We prove versions of Auslander’s formula for the torsion-free class [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text], for the derived torsion-free class [Formula: see text] of the triangulated category [Formula: see text] as well as the induced torsion-free class in the ind-category [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text]. Further, for a given regular cardinal [Formula: see text], we also consider the category [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text]-presentable objects in the functor category [Formula: see text]. Then, under certain conditions, we show that the torsion-free class [Formula: see text] can be recovered as a subquotient of [Formula: see text].

Motivated by a study of Davvaz and Shabbani which introduced the concept of U-complexes and proposed a generalization on some results in homological algebra, we study thecategory of U-complexes and the homotopy category of U-complexes. In [8] we said that the category of U-complexes is an abelian category. Here, we show that the object that we claimed to be the kernel of a morphism of U-omplexes does not satisfy the universal property of the kernel, hence wecan not conclude that the category of U-complexes is an abelian category. The homotopy category of U-complexes is an additive category. In this paper, we propose a weakly chain U-complex by changing the second condition of the chain U-complex. We prove that the homotopy category ofweakly U-complexes is a triangulated category.

Let $k$ be a commutative ring, let ${\mathcal{C}}$ be a small, $k$-linear, Hom-finite, locally bounded category, and let ${\mathcal{B}}$ be a $k$-linear abelian category. We construct a Frobenius exact subcategory ${\mathcal{G}}{\mathcal{P}}({\mathcal{G}}{\mathcal{P}}_{P}({\mathcal{B}}^{{\mathcal{C}}}))$ of the functor category ${\mathcal{B}}^{{\mathcal{C}}}$, and we show that it is a subcategory of the Gorenstein projective objects ${\mathcal{G}}{\mathcal{P}}({\mathcal{B}}^{{\mathcal{C}}})$ in ${\mathcal{B}}^{{\mathcal{C}}}$. Furthermore, we obtain criteria for when ${\mathcal{G}}{\mathcal{P}}({\mathcal{G}}{\mathcal{P}}_{P}({\mathcal{B}}^{{\mathcal{C}}}))={\mathcal{G}}{\mathcal{P}}({\mathcal{B}}^{{\mathcal{C}}})$. We show in examples that this can be used to compute ${\mathcal{G}}{\mathcal{P}}({\mathcal{B}}^{{\mathcal{C}}})$ explicitly.

AbstractIn 2001, Enochs's celebrated flat cover conjecture was finally proven, and the proofs (two different proofs were presented in the same paper) have since generated a great deal of interest among researchers. The results have been recast in a number of other categories and, in particular, for additive categories. In 2008, Mahmoudi and Renshaw considered a similar problem for acts over monoids but used a slightly different definition of cover. They proved that, in general, their definition was not equivalent to that of Enochs, except in the projective case, and left open a number of questions regarding the ‘other’ definition. This ‘other’ definition is the subject of the present paper and we attempt to emulate some of Enochs's work for the category of acts over monoids, and concentrate, in the main, on strongly flat acts. We hope to extend this work to other classes of acts, such as injective, torsion free, divisible and free, in a future report.

Our aim in this paper is to demonstrate a relationship between left exact and representable functors. More precisely, in the functor category whose objects are the additive functors from the dual of an abelian category 𝔄 to the category of abelian groups and whose morphisms are the natural transformations between them, the left exact functors can be characterized as those equivalent to a direct limit of representable functors taken over a directed class. The proof will proceed in the following manner. Lambek [3] and Ulmer [7] have shown that any functor T in can be expressed as a direct limit of representable functors taken over a comma category. When T is left exact, it is easily observed that this comma category is a filtered category. When T is left exact, it is easily observed that this comma category is a filtered category.

A flat cover of an adjustable ballast tank made of high-strength maraging steel used in deep-sea submersibles collapsed during the loading process of external pressure in the high-pressure chamber. The pressure was high, which was the trigger of the collapse, but still considerably below the design limit of the adjustable ballast tank. The failure may have been caused by material properties that may be defective, the possible stress concentration resulting from design/processing, or inappropriate installation method. The present paper focuses on the visual inspections of the material inhomogeneity, ultimate cause of the collapse of the flat cover in pressure testing, and finite element analysis. Special attention is paid to the toughness characteristics of the material. The present study demonstrates the importance of material selection for engineering components based on the comprehensive properties of the materials.
