Abstract

Starting from enriched order-theoretic properties of modules over a unital quantale in the category \(\mathsf {Sup}\), this paper presents the following theorem. If the underlying quantale is unital and involutive with a designated element, then the duality of right (left) modules preserves projectivity if and only if the underlying quantale has a dualizing element.
