Torsion classes of finite type and spectra 4119 AppendixA subcategory S of a Grothendieck category C is said to be Serre if for any short exactsequence0 ! X 0 ! X ! X 00 ! 0X 0 ;X 00 2 S if and only if X 2 S. A Serre subcategory S of C is said to be atorsion class if S is closed under taking coproducts. An object C of C is said to betorsionfree if .S;C/D 0. The pair consisting of a torsion class and the correspondingclass of torsionfree objects is referred to as a torsion theory. Given a torsion class Sin C the quotient category C=S is the full subcategory with objects those torsionfreeobjects C 2 C satisfying Ext 1 .T; C / D 0 for every T 2 S. The inclusion functori W S ! C admits the right adjoint t W C ! S which takes every object X 2 C to themaximal subobject t.X/of X belonging to S. The functor t we call the torsion functor.Moreover, the inclusion functor i W C=S ! C has a left adjoint, the localization functor. / S W C ! C=S, which is also exact. Then,Hom C .X; Y / Š Hom C=S .X S ;Y/for all X 2 C and Y 2 C=S. A torsion class S is of finite type if the functor i W C=S !C preserves directed sums. If C is a locally coherent Grothendieck category then S isof finite type if and only if i W C=S ! C preserves direct limits (see, e.g., [7]).Let C be a Grothendieck category having a family of finitely generated projectivegenerators A DfP i g i2I . Let F D S i2I Fi be a family of subobjects, where each F iis a family of subobjects of P i . We refer to F as a Gabriel filter if the following axiomsare satisfied:T1: P i 2 F i for every i 2 I ;T2: if a 2 F i and W P j ! P i then fa W g D 1 .a/ 2 F j ;T3: if a and b are subobjects of P i such that a 2 F i and fb W g 2F j for anyW P j ! P i with Im a then b 2 F i .In particular each F i is a filter of subobjects of P i . A Gabriel filter is of finite type ifeach of these filters has a cofinal set of finitely generated objects (that is, if for each iand each a 2 F i there is a finitely generated b 2 F i with a b).Note that if A DfAg is a ring and a is a right ideal of A, then for every endomorphismW A !
