AbstractWe exhibit the cartesian differential categories of Blute, Cockett and Seely as a particular kind of enriched category. The base for the enrichment is the category of commutative monoids—or in a straightforward generalisation, the category of modules over a commutative rig k. However, the tensor product on this category is not the usual one, but rather a warping of it by a certain monoidal comonad Q. Thus the enrichment base is not a monoidal category in the usual sense, but rather a skew monoidal category in the sense of Szlachányi. Our first main result is that cartesian differential categories are the same as categories with finite products enriched over this skew monoidal base. The comonad Q involved is, in fact, an example of a differential modality. Differential modalities are a kind of comonad on a symmetric monoidal k-linear category with the characteristic feature that their co-Kleisli categories are cartesian differential categories. Using our first main result, we are able to prove our second one: that every small cartesian differential category admits a full, structure-preserving embedding into the cartesian differential category induced by a differential modality (in fact, a monoidal differential modality on a monoidal closed category—thus, a model of intuitionistic differential linear logic). This resolves an important open question in this area.

Matrix pencils, or pairs of matrices, are used in a variety of applications. By the Kronecker decomposition theorem, they admit a normal form. This normal form consists of four parts, one part based on the Jordan canonical form, one part made of nilpotent matrices, and two other dual parts, which we call the observation and control part. The goal of this paper is to show that large portions of that decomposition are still valid for pairs of morphisms of modules or abelian groups, and more generally in any abelian category. In the vector space case, we recover the full Kronecker decomposition theorem. The main technique is that of reduction, which extends readily to the abelian category case. Reductions naturally arise in two flavors, which are dual to each other. There are a number of properties of those reductions which extend remarkably from the vector space case to abelian categories. First, both types of reduction commute. Second, at each step of the reduction, one can compute three sequences of invariant spaces (objects in the category), which generalize the Kronecker decomposition into nilpotent, observation and control blocks. These sequences indicate whether the system is reduced in one direction or the other. In the category of modules, there is also a relation between these sequences and the resolvent set of the pair of morphisms, which generalizes the regular pencil theorem. We also indicate how this allows to define invariant subspaces in the vector space case, and study the notion of strangeness as an example.

Let [Formula: see text] be an abelian category, [Formula: see text] an additive, full and self-orthogonal subcategory of [Formula: see text] closed under direct summands, [Formula: see text] the right Gorenstein subcategory of [Formula: see text] relative to [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] the left orthogonal class of [Formula: see text]. For an object [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text], we prove that if [Formula: see text] is in the right 1-orthogonal class of [Formula: see text], then the [Formula: see text]-projective and [Formula: see text]-projective dimensions of [Formula: see text] are identical; if the [Formula: see text]-projective dimension of [Formula: see text] is finite, then the [Formula: see text]-projective and [Formula: see text]-projective dimensions of [Formula: see text] are identical. We also prove that the supremum of the [Formula: see text]-projective dimensions of objects with finite [Formula: see text]-projective dimension and that of the [Formula: see text]-projective dimensions of objects with finite [Formula: see text]-projective dimension coincide. Then we apply these results to the category of modules.

We study the properties of tilting modules in the context of properly stratified algebras. In particular, we answer the question of when the Ringel dual of a properly stratified algebra is properly stratified itself, and show that the class of properly stratified algebras for which the characteristic tilting and cotilting modules coincide is closed under taking the Ringel dual. Studying stratified algebras whose Ringel dual is properly stratified, we discover a new Ringel-type duality for such algebras, which we call the two-step duality. This duality arises from the existence of a new (generalized) tilting module for stratified algebras with properly stratified Ringel dual. We show that this new tilting module has a lot of interesting properties; for instance, its projective dimension equals the projectively defined finitistic dimension of the original algebra, it guarantees that the category of modules of finite projective dimension is contravariantly finite, and, finally, it allows one to compute the finitistic dimension of the original algebra in terms of the projective dimension of the characteristic tilting module.

Abstract Equipping a non-equivariant topological $$\text {E}_\infty $$ E ∞ -operad with the trivial G-action gives an operad in G-spaces. For a G-spectrum, being an algebra over this operad does not provide any multiplicative norm maps on homotopy groups. Algebras over this operad are called naïve-commutative ring G-spectra. In this paper we take $$G=SO(2)$$ G = S O ( 2 ) and we show that commutative algebras in the algebraic model for rational SO(2)-spectra model rational naïve-commutative ring SO(2)-spectra. In particular, this applies to show that the SO(2)-equivariant cohomology associated to an elliptic curve C of Greenlees (Topology 44(6):1213–1279, 2005) is represented by an $$\text {E}_\infty $$ E ∞ -ring spectrum. Moreover, the category of modules over that $$\text {E}_\infty $$ E ∞ -ring spectrum is equivalent to the derived category of sheaves over the elliptic curve C with the Zariski torsion point topology.

AbstractWe show that if the given cotorsion pair $(\mathcal{A},\mathcal{B})$ in the category of modules is complete and hereditary, then both of the induced cotorsion pairs in the category of complexes are complete. We also give a cofibrantly generated model structure that can be regarded as a generalization of the projective model structure.

AbstractWe formulate a Beilinson-Bernstein-type derived equivalence for a quantized enveloping algebra at a root of 1 as a conjecture. It says that there exists a derived equivalence between the category of modules over a quantized enveloping algebra at a root of 1 with fixed regular Harish-Chandra central character and the category of certain twistedD-modules on the corresponding quantized flag manifold. We show that the proof is reduced to a statement about the (derived) global sections of the ring of differential operators on the quantized flag manifold. We also give a reformulation of the conjecture in terms of the (derived) induction functor.
