T-radicals in the category of Abelian groups. (Q2519205): Difference between revisions

In the present paper the author studies idempotent radicals on the class of Abelian groups which are constructed using tensor products. Let \(F\) be an Abelian group. An Abelian group \(A\) is called a `\(T(F)\)-group' if \(A\otimes F=0\). Using this kind of groups we can construct an idempotent radical \(W_F\): \(W_F(A)\) is the sum of all subgroups \(B\) of the Abelian group \(A\) which are \(T(F)\)-groups. The class \(\mathcal T(F)\) of all \(T(F)\)-groups is the radical class associated to the idempotent radical \(W_F\), i.e. \(W_F(A)=A\) iff \(A\in\mathcal T(F)\). The following classes of radicals are studied: -- \(\mathcal L_1\), the set of all \(T(F)\)-radicals with \(F\) a non-torsion group; -- \(\mathcal L_2\), the set of all \(T(F)\)-radicals with \(F\) a torsion group; -- \(\mathcal L=\mathcal L_1\cup\mathcal L_2\). In the end of the paper, the following interesting result (Theorem 3.11) is proved: Let \(\rho\) be an idempotent radical. The radical class \(R_\rho\) is closed under pure subgroups if and only if there exists a group \(F\) such that \(\rho=W_F\).
