Strongly FP-injective and strongly flat functors (Q2630370)

Summary: A functor \(F \in (\mathrm{mod}\)-\(R, \mathrm{Ab})\) is called \textit{strongly FP-injective} if \(F\) is isomorphic to some functor \(- \otimes M\) in \((\mathrm{mod}\)-\(R, \mathrm{Ab})\) with \(M\) an FP-injective left \(R\)-module. A functor \(G \in ((\mathrm{mod}\)-\(R)^{\mathrm {op}} \mathrm{Ab})\) is said to be \textit{strongly flat} if \(G\) is isomorphic to some functor \((-,N)\) in \(((\mathrm{mod}\)-\(R)^{\mathrm {op}},\mathrm{Ab}\)) with \(N\) a flat right \(R\)-module. We study the properties of strongly FP-injective functors and explore the relationship between strongly FP-injective functors and strongly flat functors. Precovers and preenvelopes by strongly FP-injective and strongly flat functors are also investigated.
