Corrigendum to: Goldie Extending Modules

This corrigendum is written to correct an error in Corollary 2.5(ii) and an error in the proof of the converse of Theorem 2.7 of Akalan, Birkenmeier, and Tercan [1 Akalan , E. , Birkenmeier , G.

On Goldie Extending Modules with Condition (C2)

A module M is said to be continuous if it is extending with the condition (C₂) (cf. [6 Mohamed, S. H., Müller, B. J. (1999). Continuous and Discrete Modules. London Math. Soc. LNS, Vol. 147. Cambridge: Cambridge Univ. Press. [Google Scholar]], [7 Oshiro, K. (1983). Continuous modules and quasi-continuous modules. Osaka J. Math. 20:681–694.[Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]]). In this article, we consider a 𝒢-extending module with (C₂) which is a generalization of a continuous module. First, we show that any 𝒢-extending module with (C₂) satisfies the exchange property. We also prove that, if M₁ and M₂ are 𝒢-extending modules with (C₂), then M₁ ⊕ M₂ is 𝒢-extending with (C₂) if and only if M_i is M_j-ejective (i ≠ j).     

Feebly Baer Rings and Modules

A right module M over a ring R is called feebly Baer if, whenever xa = 0 with x ∈ M and a ∈ R, there exists e² = e ∈ R such that xe = 0 and ea = a. The ring R is called feebly Baer if R_R is a feebly Baer module. These notions are motivated by the commutative analog discussed in a recent paper by Knox, Levy, McGovern, and Shapiro [6 Knox , M. L. , Levy , R. , McGovern , W. Wm. , Shapiro , J. ( 2009 ) Generalizations of complemented rings with applications to rings of functions. . J. Alg. Appl. 8 ( 1 ): 17 – 40 .[Crossref] , [Google Scholar]]. Basic properties of feebly Baer rings and modules are proved, and their connections with von Neumann regular rings are addressed.     

Krull Dimension and Classical Krull Dimension of Modules

Using the concept of prime submodule defined by Raggi et al. in [16 Raggi , F. , Rios , J. , Rincón , H. , Fernández-Alonso , R. , Signoret , C. ( 2005 ). Prime and irreducible preradicals . J. Algebra Appl. 4 ( 4 ): 451 – 466 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]], for M ∈ R-Mod we define the concept of classical Krull dimension relative to a hereditary torsion theory τ ∈M-tors. We prove that if M is progenerator in σ[M], τ ∈M-tors such that M has τ-Krull dimension then cl.K _τdim (M) ≤ k _τ(M). Also we show that if M is noetherian, τ-fully bounded, progenerator of σ[M], and M ∈ 𝔽_τ, then cl·K _τdim (M) = k _τ(M).     

On δ-semiperfect modules

A submodule N of a module M is δ-small in M if N+X≠M for any proper submodule X of M with M∕X singular. A projective δ-cover of a module M is a projective module P with an epimorphism to M whose kernel is δ-small in P. A module M is called δ-semiperfect if every factor module of M has a projective δ-cover. In this paper, we prove various properties, including a structure theorem and several characterizations, for δ-semiperfect modules. Our proofs can be adapted to generalize several results of Mares [8 Mares, E. A. (1963). Semi-perfect modules. Math. Z. 82:347–360.[Crossref] , [Google Scholar]] and Nicholson [11 Nicholson, W. K. (1975). On semiperfect modules. Canad. Math. Bull. 18(1):77–80.[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]] from projective semiperfect modules to arbitrary semiperfect modules.     

A Note on Dimension Modules

In [2 Camillo , V. P. , Zelmanowitz , J. M. ( 1980 ). Dimension modules . Pacific J. Math. 91 : 249 – 261 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]] Camillo and Zelmanowitz stated that rings all whose modules are dimension modules are semisimple Artinian. It seem however that the proof in [2 Camillo , V. P. , Zelmanowitz , J. M. ( 1980 ). Dimension modules . Pacific J. Math. 91 : 249 – 261 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]] contains a gap and applies to rings with finite Goldie dimension only. In this paper we show that the result indeed holds for all rings with a basis as well as for all commutative rings with Goldie dimension attained.     

Almost-Perfect Rings and Modules

Following [1 Amini , A. , Ershad , M. , Sharif , H. ( 2008 ). Rings over which flat covers of finitely generated modules are projective . Comm. Algebra 36 : 2862 – 2871 .[Taylor &; Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]], a ring R is called right almost-perfect if every flat right R-module is projective relative to R. In this article, we continue the study of these rings and will find some new characterizations of them in terms of decompositions of flat modules. Also we show that a ring R is right almost-perfect if and only if every right ideal of R is a cotorsion module. Furthermore, we prove that over a right almost-perfect ring, every flat module with superfluous radical is projective. Moreover, we define almost-perfect modules and investigate some properties of them.     

Modules Which are Isomorphic to Their Factor Modules

Let R be commutative ring with identity and let M be an infinite unitary R-module. Call M homomorphically congruent (HC for short) provided M/N ? M for every submodule N of M for which |M/N| = |M|. In this article, we study HC modules over commutative rings. After a fairly comprehensive review of the literature, several natural examples are presented to motivate our study. We then prove some general results on HC modules, including HC module-theoretic characterizations of discrete valuation rings, almost Dedekind domains, and fields. We also provide a characterization of the HC modules over a Dedekind domain, extending Scott's classification over ? in [22 Scott , W. R. ( 1955 ). On infinite groups . Pacific J. Math. 5 : 589 – 598 .[Crossref] , [Google Scholar]]. Finally, we close with some open questions.     

Quasi-Deformations of 𝔰𝔩2(𝔽) Using Twisted Derivations

In this article we apply a method devised in Hartwig, Larsson, and Silvestrov (2006 Hartwig , J. T. , Larsson , D. , Silvestrov , S. D. ( 2006 ). Deformations of Lie algebras using σ-derivations . J. Algebra 295 : 314 – 361 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]) and Larsson and Silvestrov (2005a Larsson , D. , Silvestrov , S. D. (2005a). Quasi-hom-Lie algebras, Central extensions and 2-cocycle-like identities. J. Algebra 288:321–344.[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]) to the simple 3-dimensional Lie algebra 𝔰𝔩₂(𝔽). One of the main points of this deformation method is that the deformed algebra comes endowed with a canonical twisted Jacobi identity. We show in the present article that when our deformation scheme is applied to 𝔰𝔩₂(𝔽) we can, by choosing parameters suitably, deform 𝔰𝔩₂(𝔽) into the Heisenberg Lie algebra and some other 3-dimensional Lie algebras in addition to more exotic types of algebras, this being in stark contrast to the classical deformation schemes where 𝔰𝔩₂(𝔽) is rigid.     

Some Remarks on Multiplication and Projective Modules II

All rings are commutative with identity and all modules are unital. Let R be a ring and M an R-module. In our recent work [6 Ali , M. M. , Smith D. J. ( 2004 ). Some remarks on multiplication and projective modules . Communications in Algebra 32 : 3897 – 3909 .[Taylor &; Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]] we investigated faithful multiplication modules and the properties they have in common with projective modules. In this article, we continue our study and investigate faithful multiplication and locally cyclic projective modules and give several properties for them. If M is either faithful multiplication or locally cyclic projective then M is locally either zero or isomorphic to R. We show that, if M is a faithful multiplication module or a locally cyclic projective module, then for every submodule N of M there exists a unique ideal Γ(N) ? Tr(M) such that N = Γ(N)M. We use this result to show that the structure of submodules of a faithful multplication or locally cyclic projective module and their traces are closely related. We also use the trace of locally cyclic projective modules to study their endomorphisms.     

Constructing New Braided T-Categories Over Regular Multiplier Hopf Algebras

Let A be a regular multiplier Hopf algebra, and let Aut(A) denote the set of all isomorphisms α from A to itself that are algebra maps satisfying (Δ ○ α)(a) = (α ? α) ○ Δ(a) for all a ∈ A. Let G be a certain crossed product group Aut(A) × Aut(A). The main purpose of this article is to provide a class of new braided T-categories in the sense of Turaev [\citealp9]. For this, we introduce a class of new categories _A 𝒴𝒟 ^A (α, β) of (α, β)-Yetter–Drinfel'd modules with α, β ∈Aut(A), and we show that the category ?𝒴𝒟(A) = { _A 𝒴𝒟 ^A (α, β)}_{(α, β)∈G} becomes a braided T-category over G, generalizing the main constructions by Panaite and Staic [6 Panaite , F. , Staic , M. D. ( 2007 ). Generalized (anti) Yetter–Drinfel'd modules as components of a braided T-category . Israel J. Math. 158 : 349 – 365 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]].     

Graded Left Symmetric Pseudo-algebras

In the present article, we introduce G-graded left symmetric H-pseudoalgebras, where G is a grading group, and H is a cocommutative Hopf algebra. Some results about associative H-pseudoalgebras in [23 Retakh , A. ( 2004 ). Unital associative pseudoalgebras and their representations . J. Algebra 227 : 769 – 805 .[Crossref] , [Google Scholar]] are generalized. The commutator algebras of the G-graded left symmetric H-pseudo-algebras are Lie H-pseudoalgebras, which are classified when the grading group is trivial in [3 Bakalov , B. , D'Andrea , A. , Kac , V. G. ( 2001 ). Theory of finite pseudoalgebras . Adv. in Math. 162 : 1 – 140 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]]. We investigate the left symmetric structure of Lie H-pseudoalgebras W(𝔟), S(𝔟), and He defined in [3 Bakalov , B. , D'Andrea , A. , Kac , V. G. ( 2001 ). Theory of finite pseudoalgebras . Adv. in Math. 162 : 1 – 140 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]].     

Gorenstein FP-Injective Dimension for Complexes

This article is a continuous work of [17 Hu , J. , Zhang , D. ( 2013 ). Weak AB-context for FP-injective modules with respect to semidualizing modules . J. Algebra Appl. 12 ( 7 ): 1350039 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]], where the coauthors introduced the notion of 𝒢-FP-injective R-modules. In this article, we define a notion of 𝒢-FP-injective dimension for complexes over left coherent rings. To investigate the relationships between 𝒢-FP-injective dimension and FP-injective dimension for complexes, the complete cohomology group bases on FP-injectives is given.     

Erratum to “On α-DICC modules” Commun. Algebra. 22(6):1933–1944 (1994)

We give a correct statement for [2 Karamzadeh, O. A. S., Motamedi, M. (1994). On α-DICC modules. Commun. Algebra 22(6):1933–1944.[Taylor &; Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar], Proposition 1.2]. However, this new form of the proposition needs no different proof from that of [2 Karamzadeh, O. A. S., Motamedi, M. (1994). On α-DICC modules. Commun. Algebra 22(6):1933–1944.[Taylor &; Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar], Proposition 1.2].     

A ring with FT-rank two

We construct a ring which admits a 2-generated, faithful torsion module but lacks a cyclic faithful torsion module. This answers a question by Oman and Schwiebert [1 Oman, G., Schwiebert, R. (2012). Rings which admit faithful torsion modules. Commun. Algebra 40(6):2184–2198.[Taylor & Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar], 2 Oman, G., Schwiebert, R. (2012). Rings which admit faithful torsion modules II. J. Algebra Appl. 11(3):1250054 (12 p.).[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]].
