Preradicals and classes of morphisms (Q2539648)

A preradical is a normal subfunctor of the identity-functor. It is given a correspondence between preradicals and classes of morphisms in rather general categories. For a class \(\underline I\) of morphisms \(R_{\underline I}\), defined by \(R_{\underline I}C= \bigcap (Ke \text{ if } \mid i\in\underline I \text{ and } f\in\mathrm{Mor}(C, \mathrm{Range}\,(i))\) is a preradical and all preradicals are of this type. As an interesting application it is given a characterisation of the set of all left exact preradicals for \(A\)-modules. Also there is a result about quasi-injective \(A\)-modules for a Noetherian ring \(A\).
