The main object of this paper is to study relative homological aspects as well as further properties of τ -closed submodules. A submodule N of a module M is said to be τ -closed (or τ -pure) provided that M/N is τ -torsion-free, where τ stands for an idempotent radical. Whereas the well-known proper class 𝒞losed (𝒫ure) of closed (pure) short exact sequences, the class τ −𝒞losed of τ -closed short exact sequences need not be a proper class. We describe the smallest proper class 〈τ − 𝒞losed〉 containing τ − 𝒞losed, through τ -closed submodules. We show that the smallest proper class 〈τ − 𝒞losed〉 is the proper classes projectively generated by the class of τ -torsion modules and coprojectively generated by the class of τ -torsion-free modules. Also, we consider the relations between the proper class 〈τ − 𝒞losed〉 and some of well-known proper classes, such as 𝒞losed, 𝒫ure.
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.
