Give me a hand please, how can i prove this sentence.

I think it's helpful to use the fundamental lemma for projective covers.



Suppose $pcolon Ptomathbb{Z}_2$ is a projective cover. There is also the canonical surjection $pi:mathbb{Z}tomathbb{Z}_2$ given by reduction mod $2$. Since $mathbb{Z}$ is projective, the Fundamental Lemma of Projective Covers gives that there exists a decomposition $mathbb{Z}=P'oplus P''$, where $Psimeq P'$, $pi(P'')=0$, and the restriction $pi|_{P'}colon P'tomathbb{Z}_2$ is a projective cover.




But $mathbb{Z}$ is indecomposable, so in any case $mathbb{Z}=P'$. Hence one would get $picolonmathbb{Z}tomathbb{Z}_2$ is a projective cover, but this is a contradiction since $kerpi=2mathbb{Z}$ is not superfluous in $mathbb{Z}$, since $2mathbb{Z}+3mathbb{Z}=mathbb{Z}$, for instance.

  • @Davis In a category of modules, $(P,p)$ is a projective cover when $p$ is a superfluous epimorphism, meaning that $ker p$ is a superfluous submodule of $P$. Generally, $N$ is a superfluous submodule of $M$ if for any submodule $L$ of $M$ such that $N+L=M$, necessarily $L=M$.
