Duality of Preenvelopes and Pure Injective Modules

Abstract: Let

R

be an arbitrary ring and

(-)^{+} = H o m_{m a t h b b Z} (-, m a t h b b Q / m a t h b b Z)

where

m a t h b b Z

is the ring of integers and

m a t h b b Q

is the ring of rational numbers, and let

m a t h c a l C

be a subcategory of left

R

-modules and

m a t h c a l D

a subcategory of right

R

-modules such that

X^{+} i n m a t h c a l D

for any

X i n m a t h c a l C

and all modules in

m a t h c a l C

are pure injective. Then a homomorphism

f : A o C

of left

R

-modules with

C i n m a t h c a l C

is a

m a t h c a l C

-(pre)envelope of

A

provided

f^{+} : C^{+} o A^{+}

is a

m a t h c a l D

-(pre)cover of

A^{+}

. Some applications of this result are given.
