The inverse limit of a sequence of ring surjections commutes with taking difference subsets of the respective units & gluing in some primes?
Define $R_n := \Bbb{Z}/p_n\#$ the ring of integers modulo primorial $p_n\# = p_n p_{n-1} \cdots p_1$. Let $U_n$ denote the group of units modulo $p_n\#$ in these rings.
Then if $f_{n,n+1}: \Bbb{Z}/p_{...

Vanishing of self-hom in Spanier–Whitehead stabilization category
$\DeclareMathOperator\Hom{Hom}\DeclareMathOperator\SW{SW}$Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring. For $R$-modules $M,N$, let $\mathcal I_R(M,N)$ be the collection of all $f\in \text{Hom}_R(M,N)$ ...

Conditions for exact projective limits for some Mittag-Leffler systems?
Let $(M_i)_{i\in I}$ and $(N_i)_{i\in I}$ be Mittag-Leffler systems of $R$-modules. I have a map $(h_i)$ of projective systems such that every $h_i$ is surjective. I search for conditions for $\lim \...

Gluing categorical limit over subgraphs
Let $C$ be a category, and $\Gamma$ a graph in $C$. Under good conditions it makes sense to talk about the limit $\lim \Gamma$ of $\Gamma$ in $C$.
Suppose $\Gamma$ is the union of two subgraphs $\...

Faithfully flat descent for modules from the simplicial point of view
Let $R \rightarrow R'$ be a faithfully flat ring map, let $M$ be an $R$-module, and let $M_n$ be the base change of $M$ to the tensor product of $n + 1$ copies of $R'$ over $R$. One way to formulate ...

Is every commutative ring a limit of noetherian rings?
Edit of Feb. 14, 2019. After Laurent Moret-Bailly's accepted answer, only Questions 4 and 5 remain open. I don't care that much about Question 4, but I'm very curious about Question 5, which is
Do ...

Canonical presentation of pro-modules over pro-rings
Let $A = (\dotsc \twoheadrightarrow A_2 \twoheadrightarrow A_1 \twoheadrightarrow A_0)$ be a (commutative) pro-ring with surjective transition maps. Consider the category $\mathcal{M} := \varprojlim_i ...

permutation of projective limits with inductive limits
Hi everybody,
I have a lack of references concerning projective limits and injective limits. Up to my faults in Bourbaki there are only proj and inj limits indexed by a partially ordered set (not a ...

Exactness of filtered colimits
Are filtered colimits exact in all abelian categories?
In Set, filtered colimits commute with finite limits. The proof carries over to categories sufficiently like Set (i.e. where you can chase ...
