The class of almost completely decomposable groups with a critical typeset of type (1,4) and a homocyclic regulator quotient of exponent p³ is shown to be of bounded representation type. There are precisely four near-isomorphism classes of indecomposables, all of rank 6.
We complete the characterization of Ext(G,ℤ) for any torsion-free abelian group G assuming Gödel’s axiom of constructibility plus there is no weakly compact cardinal. In particular, we prove in (V = L) that, for a singular cardinal ν of uncountable cofinality which is less than the first weakly compact cardinal and for every sequence of cardinals satisfying (where Π is the set of all primes), there is a torsion-free abelian group G of size ν such that equals the p-rank of Ext(G,ℤ) for every...
Let R be a subring of the rationals. We want to investigate self splitting R-modules G, that is, such that . For simplicity we will call such modules splitters (see [10]). Also other names like stones are used (see a dictionary in Ringel’s paper [8]). Our investigation continues [5]. In [5] we answered an open problem by constructing a large class of splitters. Classical splitters are free modules and torsion-free, algebraically compact ones. In [5] we concentrated on splitters which are larger...
Let R be a subring of the rational numbers ℚ. We recall from [3] that an R-module G is a splitter if . In this note we correct the statement of Main Theorem 1.5 in [3] and discuss the existence of non-free splitters of cardinality ℵ₁ under the negation of the special continuum hypothesis CH.
Suppose is an abelian torsion group with a subgroup such that is countable that is, in other words, is a torsion countable abelian extension of . A problem of some group-theoretic interest is that of whether , a class of abelian groups, does imply that . The aim of the present paper is to settle the question for certain kinds of groups, thus extending a classical result due to Wallace (J. Algebra, 1981) proved when coincides with the class of all totally projective -groups.
Almost completely decomposable groups with a critical typeset of type and a -primary regulator quotient are studied. It is shown that there are, depending on the exponent of the regulator quotient , either no indecomposables if ; only six near isomorphism types of indecomposables if ; and indecomposables of arbitrary large rank if .
