Abstract
We present a flatness criterion for additive functors unifying the results of Lazard and Ulmer. By dualization we obtain a criterion for functors being FP-injective which generalizes a result of Würfel on modules being FP-injective over their endomorphism rings. These methods will give a new characterization of FP-injective modules as well as a new version of the Gabriel Popesco theorem. Finally we describe π-flat functors (functors with flat direct products) thus extending results of Colby and Rutter.
