Review text

Recall that a purity \(\omega\) in the category of \(R\)-modules is said to be injectively closed if a monomorphism \(i\) belongs to \(\omega\) if and only if each \(\omega\)-injective module is injective with respect to \(i\). It is proved that an injectively closed purity \(\omega\) in the category of abelian groups is completely determined by \(\omega\)-injective cyclic groups (Th. 1.5; 3.2). Furthermore, it is shown that an arbitrary purity \(\omega\) in the category of abelian groups is fully described by \(\omega\)-pure monomorphisms into reduced abelian groups, \(\omega\)-pure embeddings of cyclic \(p\)-groups into Prüfer groups \(Z(p^ \infty)\) and \(\omega\)-pure embeddings of rational groups into the additive group of all rationals \(Q\).
