Primary and secondary functors have been introduced in [2] and applied to extend some results concerning asymptotic prime ideals. In this paper, the theory of primary and secondary functors is developed and examples of non-exact primary and non-exact secondary functors are presented. Also, as an application, the sets of associated and of attached prime ideals of certain modules are determined.
We discuss dual Ramsey statements for several classes of finite relational structures (such as finite linearly ordered graphs, finite linearly ordered metric spaces and finite posets with a linear extension) and conclude the paper with another rendering of the Nešetřil-Rödl Theorem for relational structures. Instead of embeddings which are crucial for ``direct'' Ramsey results, for each class of structures under consideration we propose a special class of quotient maps and prove a dual Ramsey theorem...
In the theory of accessible categories, pure subobjects, i.e. filtered colimits of split monomorphisms, play an important role. Here we investigate pure quotients, i.e., filtered colimits of split epimorphisms. For example, in abelian, finitely accessible categories, these are precisely the cokernels of pure subobjects, and pure subobjects are precisely the kernels of pure quotients.
