Notes on Cotorsion Theories and Model Categories
نویسندگان
چکیده
These are notes for two talks given by Mark Hovey at the Summer School on the Interactions between Homotopy Theory and Algebra at the University of Chicago, July 26 to August 6, 2004. Because they are notes, they are a bit more chatty and a bit more likely to contain errors than a paper would be, so caveat lector. They are based on the papers [Hov02], [Gil04b], and [Gil04a], and concern the relationship between Quillen model structures on abelian categories and cotorsion theories.

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...
متن کاملThe Countable Telescope Conjecture for Module Categories
By the Telescope Conjecture for Module Categories, we mean the following claim: “Let R be any ring and (A,B) be a hereditary cotorsion pair in Mod-R with A and B closed under direct limits. Then (A,B) is of finite type.” We prove a modification of this conjecture with the word ‘finite’ replaced by ‘countable’. We show that a hereditary cotorsion pair (A,B) of modules over an arbitrary ring R is...
متن کاملCotorsion Theories and Splitters
Let R be a subring of the rationals. We want to investigate self splitting R-modules G that is ExtR(G,G) = 0 holds and follow Schultz [22] to call such modules splitters. Free modules and torsion-free cotorsion modules are classical examples for splitters. Are there others? Answering an open problem by Schultz [22] we will show that there are more splitters, in fact we are able to prescribe the...
متن کاملInfinite Dimensional Tilting Modules and Cotorsion Pairs
Classical tilting theory generalizes Morita theory of equivalence of module categories. The key property – existence of category equivalences between large full subcategories of the module categories – forces the representing tilting module to be finitely generated. However, some aspects of the classical theory can be extended to infinitely generated modules over arbitrary rings. In this paper,...
متن کاملLectures on topological field theories
These lecture notes cover my talks at the June 2009 “Geometry of Quantum Fields and Strings” summer school at the University of Pennsylvania. I begin by giving a very brief introduction to quantum field theory, quickly moving to nonlinear sigma models and the associated A and B model topological field theories, and the physical realization of derived categories. Later lectures will cover Landau...
