      Cellular covers of local groups 

      Flores Díaz, Ramón Jesús; Scherer, Jérôme (Springer, 2018-12)
      We prove that, in the category of groups, the composition of a cellularization and a localization functor need not be idempotent. This provides a negative answer to a question of Emmanuel Dror Farjoun.
