Module approximations and direct limits
Matoušek, Cyril ; Šaroch, Jan (advisor) ; Šťovíček, Jan (referee)
This master's thesis deals with questions about the existence of module appro- ximations, namely C-precovers and C-covers for a given class C of R-modules, and studies the relations of these approximations with direct limits. Thanks to a the- orem due to Enochs, we know that every R-module has a C-cover if the pre- covering class C is closed under direct limits, although the validity of the con- verse implication remains an open problem known as Enochs' conjecture. In this setting, we show that any module M with perfect decomposition satisfies that the class Add(M) is precovering and closed under direct limits; hence also cove- ring. Furthermore, we prove Enochs' conjecture for Add(M) if M is small, e.g. < ℵω-generated. Specifically, if M is small and Add(M) covering, then M has a perfect decomposition.
Testing the projectivity of modules
Matoušek, Cyril ; Šaroch, Jan (advisor) ; Žemlička, Jan (referee)
In this thesis, we study the problem of the existence of test modules for the projectivity. A right R-module is said to be a test module if it holds for every right R-module M that M is projective whenever T ∈ M⊥ . We show that test modules exist over right perfect rings, although their existence is not provable in ZFC in case of non-right perfect rings. In order to prove this, we use Shelah's uni- formization principle, which is independent of the axioms of ZFC. Furthermore, we show that test modules exist over rings of finite global dimension assuming the weak diamond principle, which is also independent of ZFC. 1
