Characterisations of purity in a locally finitely presented additive category: A short functorial proof

In this short note, we will give an efficient functorial proof of the equivalence of various characterisations of purity in a locally finitely presented additive category $C$. The complications of the proofs for specific choices of $C$ (e.g. $C=A\text{-Mod}$ for a ring $A$) are contained in the description of fp-injective and injective objects in $(\text{fp}C,\text{Ab})$. For example, the equivalence of many characterisations of purity in a module category $A\text{-Mod}$ is a simple corollary of what we will prove here, once we know that $\text{Fpinj}(A\text{-mod},\text{Ab})$ and $\text{Inj}(A\text{-mod},\text{Ab})$ look like (we do).Comment: 5 page
