%0 Journal Article %T The Dickson Subcategory Splitting Conjecture for Pseudocompact Algebras %A M. C. Iovanov %A Constantin Nastasescu %A Blas Torrecillas-Jover %J Mathematics %D 2011 %I arXiv %X Let $A$ be a pseudocompact (or profinite) algebra, so $A=C^*$ where $C$ is a coalgebra. We show that the if the semiartinian part (the "Dickson" part) of every $A$-module $M$ splits off in $M$, then $A$ is semiartinian, also giving a positive answer in the case of algebras arising as dual of coalgebras (pseudocompact algebras), to a well known conjecture of Faith. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1109.4210v1
