Extremality and relative split injectivity #
This file gives the direct submodule-side bridge between extreme points and relative split injectives. The proof uses common kernels and the nilpotent Jacobson radical; it does not invoke categorical duality or Krull--Schmidt multiplicity uniqueness.
An indecomposable is relatively split injective in C when every
monomorphism from it to an explicitly presented object of add C
admits a retraction.
Instances For
A split embedding of X into a sum of indecomposables all distinct
from X would put the identity in the endomorphism radical.
If a component of a presentation is an invertible endomorphism of the source representative, then the whole presentation map splits.
If x is not generated by the other members of C, every
monomorphism from obj x to an object of add C splits. Otherwise all
components landing in a copy of obj x would be radical, and the common
kernel argument would generate x from C \ {x}.
Relative split injectivity prevents x from embedding into a sum
of the other members of C.
The split-injective bridge, in a slightly stronger form not requiring
C itself to be closed.
For an s-closed set and one of its members, deletion fails to
regenerate that member exactly when the member is relatively split
injective.
