Regularity and Substructures of Hom (Frontiers in Mathematics) - Softcover

Kasch, Friedrich; Mader, Adolf

 
9783764399894: Regularity and Substructures of Hom (Frontiers in Mathematics)

Synopsis

The book generalizes the well-known regularity of ring elements to regularity of homomorphisms in module categories, and further to regularity of morphisms in any category. Regular homomorphisms are characterized in terms of decompositions of domain and codomain, and numerous other results are presented. While the theory is well developed in module categories many questions remain about generalizations and extensions to other categories. The book only requires the knowledge of a basic course in modern algebra. It is written clearly, with great detail, and is accessible to students and researchers alike.

Review

From the reviews:

“This book is dedicated to generalizations of regularity for an Abelian group ... . contains an excellent and detailed exposition of results on all types of regularity in Hom with consequences for modules and rings. It is accessible, with all necessary definitions and proofs, contains also a series of instructive examples. ... interest both for students and specialists.” (A. I. Kashu, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1169, 2009)
