Abstract

We investigate certain pure injective modules over generalised Weyl algebras. We consider pure injective hulls of finite length modules, the elementary duals of these, torsionfree pure injective modules, and the closure in the Ziegler spectrum of the category of finite length modules supported on a nondegenerate orbit of a generalized Weyl algebra. We also show that this category is a direct sum of uniserial categories and admits almost split sequences. We find parallels to but also marked contrasts with the behaviour of pure injective modules over finite-dimensional algebras and hereditary orders.
