In the general setting of Grothendieck categories with enough projectives, we prove theorems that make possible to restrict the study of the problem of the existence of -covers and envelopes to the study of some properties of the class . We then prove the existence of flat covers and cotorsion envelopes of complexes, giving some examples. This generalizes the earlier work (J. Algebra 201 (1998), 86-102) and finishes the problem of the existence of flat covers of complexes. 2001 Academic Press
In this paper, we study the existence of ⊥ -envelopes, -envelopes, ⊥ -envelopes, -covers, and -covers where and denote the classes of modules of injective and projective dimension less than or equal to a natural number n, respectively. We prove that over any ring R, special ⊥ -preenvelopes and special -precovers always exist. If the ring is noetherian, the same holds for ⊥ -envelopes, and for ⊥ -envelopes and -covers when the ring is perfect. When inj.dim R ≤ n then -covers exist, and if R is such that a given class of homomorphisms is closed under well ordered direct limits then -envelopes exist.
In the last years (Gorenstein) homological dimensions relative to a semidualizing module C have been subject of several works as interesting extensions of (Gorenstein) homological dimensions. In this paper, we extend to the noncommutative case the concepts of GC -projective module and dimension, weakening the condition of C being semidualizing as well. We prove that indeed they share the principal properties of the classical ones and relate this new dimension with the classical Gorenstein projective dimension of a module. The dual concepts of GCinjective modules and dimension are also treated. Finally, we show some interesting interactions between the class of GC -projective modules and the Bass class associated to C on one side, and the class of G C ∨ -injective modules (C ∨ = HomR(C, E) where E is an injective cogenerator in RMod) and the Auslander class associated to C in the other.Mathematics Subject Classification.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
