Abstract

When A is a right non-singular ring, its maximal right ring of quotients Qmax is obtained as A E , where E is the family of all essential right ideals of A, and Mod-(A, E) consists of the non-singular injective A-modules. It follows from Prop. X.1.7 that every object in the category Mod-(A, E) is injective. Thus Mod-(A, E) is a spectral category. In view of this observation, it is natural to begin this chapter with a study of the properties of spectral categories in terms of a standard representation as a Giraud subcategory of a module category.
