Cotorsion pairs and Cartan-Eilenberg categories (Q305798)

In the recent article [J. Pure Appl. Algebra 214, No. 2, 140--164 (2010; Zbl 1198.18006)], \textit{F. Guillén} et al. proposed a new alternative approach to homotopical algebra, generalizing the classical theory of derived functors based on closed model categories of Quillen (see [loc. cit.], Theorem 4.1.2, for a precise statement). In the article under review, the author proves that, given a cotorsion pair of an abelian category satisfying some technical but mild assumptions, the category of either unbounded or bounded below complexes of the corresponding abelian category is a left Cartan-Eilenberg category (see Theorem 4.4 and 4.5).
