Salce's problem on cotorsion pairs is undecidable

Tilting Cotorsion Pairs

Let R be a ring and T be a 1-tilting right R-module. Then T is of countable type. Moreover, T is of finite type in case R is a Prüfer domain.

On the Cogeneration of Cotorsion Pairs

Let R be a Dedekind domain. In [6], Enochs’ solution of the Flat Cover Conjecture was extended as follows: (∗) If C is a cotorsion pair generated by a class of cotorsion modules, then C is cogenerated by a set. We show that (∗) is the best result provable in ZFC in case R has a countable spectrum: the Uniformization Principle UP implies that C is not cogenerated by a set whenever C is a cotorsi...

Cotorsion Pairs Induced by Duality Pairs

We introduce the notion of a duality pair and demonstrate how the left half of such a pair is “often” covering and preenveloping. As an application, we generalize a result by Enochs et al. on Auslander and Bass classes, and we prove that the class of Gorenstein injective modules—introduced by Enochs and Jenda—is covering when the ground ring has a dualizing complex.

Cotorsion pairs and model categories

The purpose of this paper is to describe a connection between model categories, a structure invented by algebraic topologists that allows one to introduce the ideas of homotopy theory to situations far removed from topological spaces, and cotorsion pairs, an algebraic notion that simultaneously generalizes the notion of projective and injective objects. In brief, a model category structure on a...
