1. Introduction
Structure and functors of associative algebras are very important and have found wide-spread application (see, for example, Refs. [
1,
2,
3,
4,
5] and references therein). This is tightly related with their cohomology theory. Certainly, a great amount of attention is paid to algebras with groups identities. It is worth mentioning that functors and satellites in conjunction with cohomology theory of associative algebras were investigated by Cartan, Eilenber, Hochschild, and other authors [
6,
7,
8,
9], but it is not applicable to non-associative algebras.
On the other hand, non-associative algebras with some identities in them, such as Cayley–Dickson algebras and their generalizations, compose a great part in algebra. Moreover, they obtained many-sided applications in physics, noncommutative geometry, quantum field theory, PDEs, and other sciences (see [
10,
11,

14,
15,
16,
17,
18,
19,
20,
21,
22,
23,
24] and references therein). Other actual non-associative structures and their applications are described in [
25,
26,
27]. For example, the Klein–Gordon hyperbolic PDE of the second order with constant coefficients was solved by Dirac with the help of complexified quaternions [
28]. Cayley–Dickson algebras were used for decompositions of higher order PDEs into lower order PDEs that permitted to integrate and analyze them subsequently [
18,
29,
30]. PDEs or their systems frequently possess groups of their symmetries [
9]. These gave rise to group algebras over the complex field
in conjunction with Cayley–Dickson algebras leading to extensions that are more general metagroup algebras. This leads to operator algebras over Cayley–Dickson algebras, and they also induce the metagroup algebras. It is necessary to note that, besides algebras over the real field
or the complex field
, there are such algebras over other fields. The latter are important in non-Archimedean quantum mechanics and quantum field theory. Then, analysis of PDEs and operators over Cayley–Dickson algebras induce generalized Cayley–Dickson algebras or metagroup algebras, which act on function modules.
A remarkable fact was outlined in the 20th century that a noncommutative geometry exists, if there exists a corresponding quasi-group [
31,
32,
33]. On the other hand, metagroups are quasigroups with weak relations.
Previously, examples of non-associative algebras, modules and homological complexes with metagroup relations were given in [
15,
16,
34,
35]. Cohomology theory on them began to be studied in [
15]. These algebras also are related with Hopf and quasi-Hopf algebras. For digital Hopf spaces, cohomologies were investigated in [
36].
Smashed and twisted wreath products of metagroups or groups were studied in [
17]. It allowed to construct ample families of metagroups even starting from groups. It also demonstrates that metagroups appear naturally in algebra. That is, metagroup algebras compose an enormous class of non-associative algebras.
This article is devoted to functors and satellites for non-associative algebras. These non-associative algebras are with mild relations induced from metagroup structures. Modules over non-associative metagroup algebras are investigated in the framework of categories and functors on them in
Section 2. Necessary Definitions 1–5 and notations in Remark 1 are provided. Exactness and additivity of functors and their sequences are investigated in Propositions 1–7. Their relations with structure of modules over non-associative algebras with metagroup relations are studied. Examples 1–3 of categories and functors are given. Satellites for modules over non-associative algebras with metagroup relations are investigated in
Section 3. Additivity of morphism related with functors is studied in Propositions 8 and 9. An exactness of satellite sequences and diagrams is scrutinized in Theorems 1–3 (see also formulas and diagrams (1)–(54)).
Auxiliary necessary definitions and notations are provided in
Appendix A (A1)–(A21) (they also are contained in [
15,
16,
35]).
All main results of this paper are obtained for the first time. They can be used for further studies of non-associative algebras and their modules, their categories and functors, cohomologies, algebraic geometry, PDEs, their applications in the sciences, etc.
2. Functors for Categories with Metagroup Relations
Remark 1. Let be an associative commutative unital ring, and let and be metagroups, and be metagroup algebras over , be a unital smashly -graded -algebra, be a left -graded -module (or right -module, or -bimodule) , where is a class or a set, where is embedded into as , and is embedded into as . For the sake of brevity, “smashly” may be omitted. For left modules , with , by will be denoted the family of all left -linear homomorphisms, which are γ-epigeneric if , γ-exact if , γ-generic if , where , for each , , x and y in , where is a left -homomorphism associated with h, , where, as usual, , . It is naturally assumed that a -epigeneric (or exact, or generic) homomorphism is also -epigeneric (or exact, or generic correspondingly); a -epigeneric (or exact, or generic) homomorphism is also -epigeneric (or exact, or generic correspondingly).
For right modules will be used similarly. For -graded -bimodules with , , ,, , s and in , let
By (or or ) will be denoted a family of all -graded left -modules for (or similarly for right modules, or bimodules), where . Letdenote a category over , where , , where will also be written in place of due to embeddings and Conditions – provided in Definition 2 in [35] and above, where is also used as a shortening of , where , , , , ; s and τ are fixed. This will also be called a left -homomorphism. A sequenceis exact by the definition if and only if a sequenceis exact. If , then it will also be written shortly . If , then it will also be written for brevity . Definition 1. Let be a functor such that for each where , for each , is a metagroup, is an associative commutative unital ring, is a ring homomorphism, , (see Remark 1). For each , let , , for , where if , if , if , where is induced by the restriction of on , is a homomorphism of algebras, where , for each , for each and , for each and . Notice that, if h is an identity homomorphism, then is an identity homomorphism, . The functor T is called additive if it satisfies:for each and in with . Assume that, if , , then . If these conditions are satisfied, then T is called a s-covariant functor from the category over into the category over . If s is specified, it may be shortly called a covariant functor.
If for each and as above, then it is said that T is a contravariant functor.
Similarly, functors are defined for the category of right modules and for the category of bimodules, where , .
Let , , be commutative associative unital rings and , , be the categories of -graded left -modules over the rings , , respectively, for i in , , , respectively, where , , and τ are fixed. Let for each , there be posed , to each , , where , , , is a metagroup, is the commutative associative unital ring, is a -graded -algebra, is a -graded left -module, there are posed homomorphisms and , such thatwhere if , Note that, if , , then , .
Assume also that and ; there is the commutative diagram: Then, it is said that T is a functor of two arguments covariant in the first and contravariant in the second argument. If we fix , then will be a covariant functor; if we fix , then will be a contravariant functor. We shall consider additive functors:for each and in with , and in with . In particular, if (or ), then . Notice that , , where and denote zero homomorphisms. Henceforward, additive functors are considered if some other is not specified.
Proposition 1. Assume that sequences of homomorphismswith , , , , induce representations of the left modules and as direct sums, where , , for each , , , for each . Then, sequences of homomorphismsinduce a representation of as a direct sum. Proof. Since
, then the composition
is the identity map if
; otherwise, it is zero. The sum
is the identity map such that
and
are the identity maps of the corresponding algebra
and module
, respectively.
This implies that the family of homomorphisms provides a representation of the module as the direct sum. □
Corollary 1. For each split, exact sequencesthe sequencesare also split and exact. Definition 2. Assume that and are two functors covariant in and contravariant in with for each . Assume also that there are homomorphisms such that, for each and , there exists the commutative diagramwhere for each i, , where v is fixed. Then, is called a natural v-map of the functor into the functor . Moreover, if each map is an isomorphism of onto , then is called a natural v-equivalence or v-isomorphism. If v is provided, it can be shortened to natural map (natural equivalence, natural isomorphism, respectively).
Example 1. Letwhere G, and B are fixed, with families of homomorphisms A category with these restrictions will be denoted by
. In this case,
, so it can be omitted for shortening the notation, while
corresponds to
and
, since
G,

B are fixed. Therefore, it is possible to consider

y in
. Let

, let
Therefore, the pair composes an additive functor contravariant in and covariant in on .
If, for , families of homomorphisms are considered, then it gives a category , where , . Evidently, is a subcategory in and the latter is a subcategory in .
Example 2. On the category , let for each and and , where and are in , where
. Notice that . Therefore, provides an additive functor contravariant in and covariant in on .
Example 3. Let be a subcategory of for fixed G, and B, that is, , , for each , with homomorphisms . A G-smashed tensor product is provided by Definition 7 in [35] for each and in . For any and , it will be put for each and . Therefore, there exists a functor defined by and with . Hence, it satisfiesfor each and in , and in . Thus, is the covariant functor in two arguments. Definition 3. Assume that is a functor covariant in and contravariant in , where and belong to . Assume that, for exact sequences,with left w-homomorphisms (i.e., for each p, k, where , ), the sequencesare also exact with left - and -homomorphisms, respectively, for each p and k. Then, the functor T is called w-exact (or shortly exact). Proposition 2. The functor covariant in and contravariant in is w-exact in the category with , for each corresponding k and p, if and only if, for each exact sequences,with left -homomorphisms for each corresponding k and p, the following sequencesare exact with left - and -homomorphisms, respectively, for each corresponding p and k. Proof. From Definition 3, the necessity follows. For proving the sufficiency, we consider any exact sequence
We put

,
, where
,
. Since
, they induce exact sequences with
-epigeneric homomorphisms (for the corresponding
k,
p)
where the quotient
-graded left
-module
exists, since
is the commutative group relative to the addition operation, while the homomorphism
is
-epigeneric,
, such that
. By the conditions of this proposition, this implies the exactness of the sequences
with the
-homomorphisms (for the corresponding
k,
p), since the functor
T maps
into
by Definition 1.
From the exactness of these sequences, it follows that the sequence
is exact with the
-homomorphisms (for the corresponding
k,
p). A similar proof is in the second argument
. □
Definition 4. Letbe exact sequences with left -homomorphisms for each corresponding k and p, where , , and belong to . A functor T will be called w-half exact, if there are exact sequenceswith left - and -homomorphisms, respectively (for the corresponding k, p). The functor T is called w-exact on the right if there exist exact sequenceswith left - and -homomorphisms, respectively (for the corresponding k, p). Symmetrically, the functor T is called w-exact on the left, if there exist exact sequenceswith left - and -homomorphisms, respectively (for the corresponding k, p). Similar definitions are for the categories and .
Proposition 3. The following conditions are equivalent:
- (i)
the functor T is w-exact on the right, where ;
- (ii)
for each exact sequence,with left -homomorphisms (for each corresponding k and p) in with there exist exact sequenceswith left - and -homomorphisms, respectively, for each corresponding p and k; - (iii)
moreover, in the subcategory is equivalent to: for each exact sequencewith left w-homomorphisms there exists the exact sequence
Proof. . Let
,
, where
,
,
. Hence, there exist exact sequences
with
-homomorphisms for the corresponding
k,
p. Therefore, there are exact sequences
with left
-homomorphisms for the corresponding
k,
p. This implies that the sequence
is exact with left
-homomorphisms for the corresponding
k,
p. A similar proof is in the second argument.
. It is evident from Definition 4.

w-homomorphisms and exact rows and columns:
This implies that the sequence

w-homomorphisms, since

Let ; then, , hence there exists such that . Notice that the w-homomorphism is epimorphic; consequently, there exists such that , hence . This implies that , where . Therefore, there exists such that ; consequently, . Thus, and, consequently, .
On the other hand, there is the commutative diagram with exact rows and columns and
and
homomorphisms for the corresponding
p and
k:
From the last three diagrams and the proof above, the implication in the subcategory follows.
in the subcategory . Applying in two cases and , and , one gets . □
Symmetrically to Proposition 3, the following proposition for functors w-exact on the left is formulated and proved.
Proposition 4. The following conditions are equivalent:
- (i)

moreover, in the subcategory is equivalent to: for each exact sequencewith left w-homomorphisms, there exists the exact sequencewith .
Proposition 5. On the category with , the functor is exact on the left.
Proof. Choose any exact sequence with left
-homomorphisms for each corresponding
k and
p:

This induces the sequence

; consequently, the homomorphism
induces a homomorphism
with
Let be a homomorphism such that with for each and for each with satisfying , since and only depends on . This implies that and . Thus, q is the isomorphism. The exactness on the left in the second argument is proved similarly. □
Proposition 6. In the subcategory , the functor of the smashed G-graded tensor product over B is exact on the right.
Proof. Take any exact sequence
with
w-homomorphisms
and
, where

G (see also Definition 7 in [
35]). Let
z be a homomorphism
such that

f is the isomorphism. □
Definition 5. Assume that X is a G-graded left B-module and for each G-graded left B-modules Y and and homomorphisms and , where f and g are B-epigeneric, , there exists a homomorphism with . Then, the module X is called projective.
If, for the G-graded left B-module X, for each G-graded left B-modules Y and with an injective B-epigeneric homomorphism , for each B-epigeneric homomorphism , there exists a B-epigeneric homomorphism such that ; then, the G-graded left B-module X is called injective.
Proposition 7. The G-graded left B-module X is projective (or injective) if and only if the functor (or , respectively) is exact in the category with , , , where , , .
Proof. The functor T is exact on the left by Proposition 5. Therefore, it is exact, in the category with , , , , if and only if, for each B-exact epimorphism , the map is also a B-exact epimorphism.
In view of Proposition 3, the functor Q is exact on the right. Then, Q is exact if and only if for each injective B-epigeneric homomorphism the map is an injective B-epigeneric homomorphism. □

Metagroup Relations
Remark 2. In the category with , let a diagrambe with exact rows in subcategories for the upper row and for the lower row with and a projective G-graded left B-module , where for each m. That is, there is a diagram with exact rows This implies that there exists a homomorphism such that . The homomorphism induces a homomorphism satisfying , where is the shortening of for each m, n.
Let T be a covariant additive functor on . Then, the diagramis commutative. That is, the diagramsare commutative. Therefore, the homomorphism induces a homomorphism denoted by from into such that , where . If a functor T is contravariant, then directions of all arrows change on inverse arrows in the latter diagram and there exists a homomorphism denoted by from into such that , where .
Proposition 8. Assume that the conditions of Remark 2 are satisfied. Then, the homomorphisms and for the category are independent of a choice of satisfyingare additive for homomorphisms of the corresponding modules , for each and in for the corresponding n, k. Moreover, for the following diagram:with exact rows in the subcategories with , correspondingly, with and for each m and projective G-graded left B-modules and , and are transitive: Proof. The first diagram in Remark 2 has the exact lower row. Therefore, for and in such that and , satisfying the conditions of this proposition, one gets , where . For and in such that and , we infer that . Therefore, ; consequently, for each . This implies that the homomorphism is the same for all satisfying Condition .
If the functor T is contravariant, then ; consequently, . Thus, the homomorphism is the same for all satisfying Condition .

Remark 3. Take now the following diagram for the category with with exact rows in the subcategories for the upper row and for the lower row with and an injective G-graded left B-module , where for each m. Therefore, a homomorphism exists such that This induces a homomorphism such that For a covariant functor T on the diagramis commutative and implies an existence of a homomorphism Since , , .
For a contravariant functor T, directions of all arrows in the latter diagram are inverse, and it induces a homomorphism Symmetrically to Proposition 8, one gets the following:
Proposition 9. Let the conditions of Remark 3 be satisfied. Then, the homomorphisms and for the category are independent of a choice of satisfying Conditions and in Remark 3 such that and are additive:for G-graded left B-modules , for each and in for the corresponding n, k. Moreover, for the following diagram: with exact rows in the subcategories with , correspondingly, with and for each m and injective G-graded left B-modules and , and are transitive: Definition 6. Letbe two exact sequences in the subcategory , where is the projective G-graded left B-module, and is the injective G-graded left B-module (see also Remarks 2 and 3). For a covariant additive functor T, let Lemma 1. If there are exact sequences and as in Definition 6 andin the category , where is the projective G-graded left B-module, is the injective G-graded left B-module, then and are isomorphic, also and are isomorphic. Proof. Definition 6 implies that there are exact sequences

Definition 7. Let and belong to the category with , and let T be a covariant additive functor, where . The homomorphisms and define homomorphisms The functor (or ) is called a left (right correspondingly) satellite of the functor T. Then, by induction, the satellites of higher order are defined: It is put that for each .
Remark 4. In view of Propositions 7 and 8, the left and right satellites and are covariant additive functors on the category . For the contravariant additive functor T, we get thatanalogous to Remarks 2 and 3 and Lemma 1 with the ring . Therefore, and also are contravariant additive functors. Corollary 2. If the additive functor T is exact on the right, then for each . If the additive functor T is exact on the left, then for each . If the additive functor T is exact, then for each .
Proposition 10. Assume that the functor T is additive and covariant (or contravariant). If the G-graded left B-module is projective (or injective correspondingly), then for each . If is injective (or projective correspondingly), then for each .
Proof. If the

Then, the assertions of this proposition follow from Proposition 9 and Lemma 1. □
Proposition 11. Letbe exact sequences in the category with a projective G-graded left B-module and an injective left B-module . If the functor T is covariant (or contravariant), then Proof. This follows from Proposition 10 using exact sequences and in Remark 4, and in Lemma 1. □
Theorem 1. Assume that a diagramis commutative with exact rows in the category , where . If a functor T is additive and covariant (or contravariant), then there exists a commutative diagramcorrespondingly). Proof. We consider an exact sequence
with a projective
G-graded left
B-module

-graded left
submodule in

Iterating this procedure in

Applying Proposition 8, we infer that the homomorphism from to is the composition of homomorphisms from into and from into .
For the contravariant functor, we deduce that homomorphisms and exist. The rest of the proof is similar. □
Theorem 2. Assume that a sequenceis exact in the category , where . Assume also that the additive functor T is covariant. Then, there exists an infinite sequencewhere , such that and and . Proof. For the sequence

Theorem 3. Assume that there exists an exact sequencein the category with . If T is an additive covariant (or contravariant) half-exact functor, then there exists an exact sequencecorrespondingly). Proof. In view of Proposition A2 in [
34] and the conditions of this theorem, we infer that there exists a commutative diagram
with exact rows, since the functor
T is half-exact. By virtue of Lemma A1 in [
34], the sequence
is exact. That is, the sequence
is exact. Consider now an exact sequence
in the subcategory

, so that
and
for each

-graded left
-module

; hence, there exist exact sequences
and the commutative diagram

,
. Therefore, there exists the exact sequence
by Lemma A1 in [
34]. On the other hand, the homomorphism from
into
coincides with the homomorphism from
into
. Therefore, the sequence
is exact.
We consider an exact sequence
where
is the projective
-graded left
-module. Consider a
-graded left
-submodule
Y of

and
, the equality
is satisfied. Certainly, there are homomorphisms
and
induced by the maps
and
. Note that there are else homomorphisms:
and
induced by the maps
and
for each
and
. Therefore, there exists a commutative diagram:
with exact rows and columns, and with
, where the sequence
splits, since the
-graded left
-module
is projective. Therefore, there exists a commutative diagram
with exact rows. From Proposition A2 in [
34], it follows that the sequence
is exact. Then, we infer that
, since the sequence
is exact. Thus, the sequence
is exact. Then, we prove that
. Assume that sequences
and
are identical. In this case, there exists an embedding homomorphism
In general, we consider the following commutative diagram:
with
. This induces the commutative diagram:
This implies that
, hence the sequence
is exact, where, as usual, ∘ denotes the composition of maps. This implies that the sequence
is exact. By the dual proof to the above, one gets that the sequence
is also exact. Thus, the functors
and
are half-exact. Proceeding this proof by induction, one gets that the sequence
is exact. □
