Classifying Serre subcategories via atom spectrum (Q456769): Difference between revisions

The paper extends Herzog's one-to-one correspondence between localizing subcategories of a locally coherent Grothendieck category and the open sets of the Ziegler spectrum. A first instance of such a correspondence was found in Gabriel's thesis, and similar topics were studied intensively in \textit{H. Krause}'s habilitation thesis. An object of an abelian category \(\mathcal A\) is called monoform if it is a rational extension of every non-zero subobject. Monoform objects are ``strongly uniform'' in the sense of \textit{H. Storrer}. The author introduces the atom spectrum of \(\mathcal A\), points of which are the classes of monoform objects with a common non-zero subobject. With a suitable topology, the atom spectrum generalizes the Ziegler spectrum of a locally noetherian Grothendieck category.
