Absolutely Clean, Level, and Gorenstein AC-Injective Complexes

Abstract: Absolutely clean and level $R$-modules were introduced in [BGH13] and used to show how Gorenstein homological algebra can be extended to an arbitrary ring $R$. This led to the notion of Gorenstein AC-injective and Gorenstein AC-projective $R$-modules. Here we study these concepts in the category of chain complexes of $R$-modules. We define, characterize and deduce properties of absolutely clean, level, Gorenstein AC-injective, and Gorenstein AC-projective chain complexes. We show that the category $\text{Ch}(R)$ of chain complexes has a cofibrantly generated model structure where every object is cofibrant and the fibrant objects are exactly the Gorenstein AC-injective chain complexes.
