DefinitionsSuppose R is a ring and M is a left R-module. Take two sets I and J, and for every i in I and j in J, an element rij of R such that, for every i in I, only finitely many rij are non-zero. Furthermore, take an element mi of M for every i in I. These data describe a system of linear equations in M: for every i∈I. The goal is to decide whether this system has a solution, i.e. whether there exist elements xj of M for every j in J such that all the equations of the system are simultaneously satisfied. (Note that we do not require that only finitely many of the xj are non-zero here.) Now consider such a system of linear equations, and assume that any subsystem consisting of only finitely many equations is solvable. (The solutions to the various subsystems may be different.) If every such "finitely-solvable" system is itself solvable, then we call the module M algebraically compact. A module homomorphism M → K is called pure injective if the induced homomorphism between the tensor products C ⊗ M → C ⊗ K is injective for every right R-module C. The module M is pure-injective if any pure injective homomorphism j : M → K splits (i.e. there exists f : K → M with fj = 1M). It turns out that a module is algebraically compact if and only if it is pure-injective. ExamplesAll modules with finitely many elements are algebraically compact. Every vector space is algebraically compact (since it is pure-injective). More generally, every injective module is algebraically compact, for the same reason. If R is an associative algebra with 1 over some field k, then every R-module with finite k-dimension is algebraically compact. This, together with that fact that all finite modules are algebraically compact, gives rise to the intuition that algebraically compact modules are those (possibly "large") modules which share the nice properties of "small" modules. The Prüfer groups are algebraically compact abelian groups (i.e. Z-modules). The ring of p-adic integers for each prime p is algebraically compact as both a module over itself and a module over Z. The rational numbers are algebraically compact as a Z-module. Together with the indecomposable finite modules over Z, this is a complete list of indecomposable algebraically compact modules. Many algebraically compact modules can be produced using the injective cogenerator Q/Z of abelian groups. If H is a right module over the ring R, one forms the (algebraic) character module H* consisting of all group homomorphisms from H to Q/Z. This is then a left R-module, and the *-operation yields a faithful contravariant functor from right R-modules to left R-modules. Every module of the form H* is algebraically compact. Furthermore, there are pure injective homomorphisms H → H**, natural in H. One can often simplify a problem by first applying the *-functor, since algebraically compact modules are easier to deal with. FactsThe following condition is equivalent to M being algebraically compact:
Every indecomposable algebraically compact module has a local endomorphism ring. Algebraically compact modules share many other properties with injective objects because of the following: there exists an embedding of R-Mod into a Grothendieck category G under which the algebraically compact R-modules precisely correspond to the injective objects in G. Every R-module is elementary equivalent to an algebraically compact R-module and to a direct sum of indecomposable algebraically compact R-modules[1].
