Extremality and relative split projectivity #
For an indecomposable representative x, failure of x to be generated by
C \ {x} is equivalent to every epimorphism from an explicitly presented
object of add C to x splitting.
The difficult implication uses nilpotence of the Jacobson radical of
End(x). In the current skeleton this is supplied by the same Artinian
endomorphism-ring hypothesis used for anti-exchange.
Relative split projectivity with respect to add C, expressed on the
explicit finite-sum skeleton: every epimorphic presentation from add C
admits a section.
Instances For
The map from one summand of a quotient presentation to its target.
Instances For
A quotient presentation is pointwise the sum of its component maps.
If one component, transported to an endomorphism of the target representative, is a unit, the whole presentation splits.
If a presentation does not split, every component labelled by the target representative becomes a nonunit endomorphism after transport.
A nonsplit quotient presentation from add C has range contained in
the trace of C \ {x} plus the ranges of radical endomorphisms of x.
Extremality implies relative split projectivity. Nilpotence of the
Jacobson radical (here obtained from Artinianness of the endomorphism ring)
is the extra input needed to discard nonsplit copies of x in a source.
Relative split projectivity prevents generation by the other selected
representatives. This direction only uses locality of End(x), which
comes from indecomposability and finite length.
The module-theoretic extremality equivalence. It holds for an arbitrary
selected set C; only Artinianness of End(x) is used in the difficult
implication.
The manuscript-context wrapper: C is quotient-closed and contains
x. The stronger theorem above shows that these two assumptions locate
the statement inside the closed set but are not needed by the equivalence.
