Principally Quasi-Baer skew Generalized Power Series modules

Let R be a ring and S a strictly totally ordered monoid. Let ω: S → End(R) be a monoid homomorphism. Let M _R be an ω-compatible module and either R satisfies the ascending chain conditions (ACC) on left annihilator ideals or every S-indexed subset of right semicentral idempotents in R has a generalized S-indexed join. We show that M _R is p.q.-Baer if and only if the generalized power series module M[[S]] _{R[[S, ω]]} is p.q.-Baer. As a consequence, we deduce that for an ω-compatible ring R, the skew generalized power series ring R[[S, ω]] is right p.q.-Baer if and only if R is right p.q.-Baer and either R satisfies the ACC on left annihilator ideals or any S-indexed subset of right semicentral idempotents in R has a generalized S-indexed join in R. Examples to illustrate and delimit the theory are provided.     

Principally Quasi-Baer Skew Power Series Modules

A module M _R is called principally quasi-Baer (or simply p.q.-Baer) if the annihilator of every cyclic submodule of M _R is generated by an idempotent, as a right ideal. Let α be an automorphism of R and M _R be an α-compatible module and every countable subset of right semicentral idempotents in R has a generalized countable join or R satisfies the ACC on left annihilator ideals. It is shown that M _R is p.q.-Baer if and only if M[[x]] _{R[[x; α]]} is p.q.-Baer if and only if M[[x, x ^?1]] _{R[[x, x ^?1; α]]} is p.q.-Baer. As a consequence, we unify and extend nontrivially many of the previously known results such as [11 Hashemi , E. ( 2008 ). A note on p.q.-Baer modules . New York J. Math. 14 : 403 – 410 . [Google Scholar], 15 Huang , F. K. ( 2008 ). A note on extensions of principally quasi-Baer rings . Taiwan. J. Math. 45 ( 4 ): 469 – 481 . [Google Scholar], 20 Liu , Z. ( 2002 ). A note on principally quasi-Baer rings . Comm. Algebra 30 ( 8 ): 3885 – 3890 .[Taylor &; Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]]. Examples to illustrate and delimit the theory are provided.     

t-Extending Modules and t-Baer Modules

We introduce the notions of “t-extending modules,” and “t-Baer modules,” which are generalizations of extending modules. The second notion is also a generalization of nonsingular Baer modules. We show that a homomorphic image (hence a direct summand) of a t-extending module and a direct summand of a t-Baer module inherits the property. It is shown that a module M is t-extending if and only if M is t-Baer and t-cononsingular. The rings for which every free right module is t-extending are called right Σ-t-extending. The class of right Σ-t-extending rings properly contains the class of right Σ-extending rings. Among other equivalent conditions for such rings, it is shown that a ring R is right Σ-t-extending, if and only if, every right R-module is t-extending, if and only if, every right R-module is t-Baer, if and only if, every nonsingular right R-module is projective. Moreover, it is proved that for a ring R, every free right R-module is t-Baer if and only if Z ₂(R _R ) is a direct summand of R and every submodule of a direct product of nonsingular projective R-modules is projective.     

Left APP differential polynomial rings

A ring R is called a left APP-ring if for each element a∈R, the left annihilator l_R(Ra) is right s-unital as an ideal of R or equivalently R∕l_R(Ra) is flat as a left R-module. In this paper, we show that for a ring R and derivation δ of R, R is left APP if and only if R is δ-weakly rigid and the differential polynomial ring R[x;δ] is left APP. As a consequence, we see that if R is a left APP-ring, then the n^th Weyl algebra over R is left APP. Also we define δ-left APP (resp. p.q.-Baer) rings and we show that R is left APP (resp. p.q.-Baer) if and only if for each derivation δ of R, R is δ-weakly rigid and δ-left APP (resp. p.q.-Baer). Finally we prove that R[x;δ] is left APP (resp. p.q.-Baer) if and only if R is δ-left APP (resp. p.q.-Baer).     

Modules having Baer summands

Let R be an arbitrary ring with identity and M a right R-module with S = End_R(M). Let F be a fully invariant submodule of M and I^?1(F) denotes the set {m∈M:Im?F} for any subset I of S. The module M is called F-Baer if I^?1(F) is a direct summand of M for every left ideal I of S. This work is devoted to the investigation of properties of F-Baer modules. We use F-Baer modules to decompose a module into two parts consists of a Baer module and a module determined by fully invariant submodule F, namely, for a module M, we show that M is F-Baer if and only if M = F⊕N where N is a Baer module. By using F-Baer modules, we obtain some new results for Baer rings.     

On Skew Inverse Laurent-Serieswise Armendariz Rings

We study the skew inverse Laurent-serieswise Armendariz (or simply, SIL-Armendariz) condition on R, a generalization of the standard Armendariz condition from polynomials to skew inverse Laurent series. We study relations between the set of annihilators in R and the set of annihilators in R((x ^?1; α)). Among applications, we show that a number of interesting properties of a SIL-Armendariz ring R such as the Baer and the α-quasi Baer property transfer to its skew inverse Laurent series extensions R((x ^?1; α)) and vice versa. For an α-weakly rigid ring R, R((x ^?1; α)) is a left p.q.-Baer ring if and only if R is left p.q.-Baer and every countable subset of S _?(R) has a generalized countable join in R. Various types of examples of SIL-Armendariz rings is provided.     

Annihilator Conditions on Polynomials over Modules

Let R be a ring with unity and M be a right R-module. The system M[x] forms a left near R[x]-module under addition and substitution operations. In this paper we extend the study of annihilator conditions on nearring of polynomials to left near R[x]-module M[x], when M is a reduced Baer module. Also, we give a characterization of reduced modules. As a corollary we obtain some results of Birkenmeier and Huang [3].     

Injective Hulls of Simple Modules over Differential Operator Rings

We study injective hulls of simple modules over differential operator rings R[θ; d], providing necessary conditions under which these modules are locally Artinian. As a consequence, we characterize Ore extensions of S = K[x][θ; σ, d] for σ a K-linear automorphism and d a K-linear σ-derivation of K[x] such that injective hulls of simple S-modules are locally Artinian.     

T-Semisimple Modules and T-Semisimple Rings

We define and investigate t-semisimple modules as a generalization of semisimple modules. A module M is called t-semisimple if every submodule N contains a direct summand K of M such that K is t-essential in N. T-semisimple modules are Morita invariant and they form a strict subclass of t-extending modules. Many equivalent conditions for a module M to be t-semisimple are found. Accordingly, M is t-semisiple, if and only if, M = Z ₂(M) ⊕ S(M) (where Z ₂(M) is the Goldie torsion submodule and S(M) is the sum of nonsingular simple submodules). A ring R is called right t-semisimple if R _R is t-semisimple. Various characterizations of right t-semisimple rings are given. For some types of rings, conditions equivalent to being t-semisimple are found, and this property is investigated in terms of chain conditions.     

Principally Quasi-Baer Skew Power Series Rings

Let α be an endomorphism of R which is not assumed to be surjective and R be α-compatible. It is shown that the skew power series ring R[[x; α]] is right p.q.-Baer if and only if the skew Laurent series ring R[[x, x ^?1; α]] is right p.q.-Baer if and only if R is right p.q.-Baer and every countable subset of right semicentral idempotents has a generalized countable join. Examples to illustrate and delimit the theory are provided.     

Strongly Duo Modules and Rings

An R-module M is called strongly duo if Tr(N, M) = N for every N ≤ M _R . Several equivalent conditions to being strongly duo are given. If M _R is strongly duo and reduced, then End _R (M) is a strongly regular ring and the converse is true when R is a Dedekind domain and M _R is torsion. Over certain rings, nonsingular strongly duo modules are precisely regular duo modules. If R is a Dedekind domain, then M _R is strongly duo if and only if either M ≈ R or M _R is torsion and duo. Over a commutative ring, strongly duo modules are precisely pq-injective duo modules and every projective strongly duo module is a multiplication module. A ring R is called right strongly duo if R _R is strongly duo. Strongly regular rings are precisely reduced (right) strongly duo rings. A ring R is Noetherian and all of its factor rings are right strongly duo if and only if R is a serial Artinian right duo ring.     

𝔏-Rickart Modules

It is well known that the Rickart property of rings is not a left-right symmetric property. We extend the notion of the left Rickart property of rings to a general module theoretic setting and define 𝔏-Rickart modules. We study this notion for a right R-module M _R where R is any ring and obtain its basic properties. While it is known that the endomorphism ring of a Rickart module is a right Rickart ring, we show that the endomorphism ring of an 𝔏-Rickart module is not a left Rickart ring in general. If M _R is a finitely generated 𝔏-Rickart module, we prove that End _R (M) is a left Rickart ring. We prove that an 𝔏-Rickart module with no set of infinitely many nonzero orthogonal idempotents in its endomorphism ring is a Baer module. 𝔏-Rickart modules are shown to satisfy a certain kind of nonsingularity which we term “endo-nonsingularity.” Among other results, we prove that M is endo-nonsingular and End _R (M) is a left extending ring iff M is a Baer module and End _R (M) is left cononsingular.     

Supplement Submodules of Injective Modules

An R-module M is called almost injective if M is a supplement submodule of every module which contains M. The module M is called F-almost injective if every factor module of M is almost injective. It is shown that a ring R is a right H-ring if and only if R is right perfect and every almost injective module is injective. We prove that a ring R is semisimple if and only if the R-module R _R is F-almost injective.     

Automorphism Group of q-Quantum Torus Lie Algebra with q a Root of Unity*

Let α be an automorphism of a ring R. We study the skew Armendariz of Laurent series type rings (α-LA rings), as a generalization of the standard Armendariz condition from polynomials to skew Laurent series. We study on the relationship between the Baerness and p.p. property of a ring R and these of the skew Laurent series ring R[[x, x ^?1; α]], in case R is an α-LA ring. Moreover, we prove that for an α-weakly rigid ring R, R[[x, x ^?1; α]] is a left p.q.-Baer ring if and only if R is left p.q.-Baer and every countable subset of S _?(R) has a generalized countable join in R. Various types of examples of α-LA rings are provided.     

Commutative rings whose proper ideals are direct sums of uniform modules

An interesting result, obtaining by some theorems of Asano, Köthe and Warfield, states that: “for a commutative ring R, every module is a direct sum of uniform modules if and only if R is an Artinian principal ideal ring.” Moreover, it is observed that: “every ideal of a commutative ring R is a direct sum of uniform modules if and only if R is a finite direct product of uniform rings.” These results raise a natural question: “What is the structure of commutative rings whose all proper ideals are direct sums of uniform modules?” The goal of this paper is to answer this question. We prove that for a commutative ring R, every proper ideal is a direct sum of uniform modules, if and only if, R is a finite direct product of uniform rings or R is a local ring with the unique maximal ideal ? of the form ? = U⊕S, where U is a uniform module and S is a semisimple module. Furthermore, we determine the structure of commutative rings R for which every proper ideal is a direct sum of cyclic uniform modules (resp., cocyclic modules). Examples which delineate the structures are provided.     

On Rings Having McCoy-Like Conditions

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we study the behavior of the couniform (or dual Goldie) dimension of a module under various polynomial extensions. For a ring automorphism σ ∈ Aut(R), we use the notion of a σ-compatible module M _R to obtain results on the couniform dimension of the polynomial modules M[x], M[x ^?1], and M[x, x ^?1] over suitable skew extension rings.     

Modules Whose t-Closed Submodules Have a Summand as a Complement

We define and investigate T ₁₁-type modules as a generalization of t-extending modules, and modules satisfying C ₁₁ condition. A module M is said to be T ₁₁-type if every t-closed submodule of M has a complement which is a direct summand. Direct sums of T ₁₁-type modules inherit the property. Some equivalent conditions for a module M to be T ₁₁-type are given. We characterize a module M for which every direct summand satisfies T ₁₁ condition. If R _R is T ₁₁-type, then R/Z ₂(R _R ) is a C ₂ ring if and only if it is a von Neumann regular ring. Applying this result, we characterize a right t-extending (resp., finitely Σ-t-extending, or Σ-t-extending) ring R for which R/Z ₂(R _R ) is von Neumann regular.     

Noetherian rings with almost injective simple modules

We characterize right Noetherian rings over which all simple modules are almost injective. It is proved that R is such a ring, if and only if, the complements of semisimple submodules of every R-module M are direct summands of M, if and only if, R is a finite direct sum of right ideals I_r, where I_r is either a Noetherian V-module with zero socle, or a simple module, or an injective module of length 2. A commutative Noetherian ring for which all simple modules are almost injective is precisely a finite direct product of rings R_i, where R_i is either a field or a quasi-Frobenius ring of length 2. We show that for commutative rings whose all simple modules are almost injective, the properties of Kasch, (semi)perfect, semilocal, quasi-Frobenius, Artinian, and Noetherian coincide.     

On ADS Modules and Rings

A right module M over a ring R is said to be ADS if for every decomposition M = S ⊕ T and every complement T′ of S, we have M = S ⊕ T′. In this article, we study and provide several new characterizations of this new class of modules. We prove that M is semisimple if and only if every module in σ[M] is ADS. SC and SI rings also characterized by the ADS notion. A ring R is right SC-ring if and only if every 2-generated singular R-module is ADS.     

On Weak Dual Rickart Modules and Dual Baer Modules

We introduce and study the notion of wd-Rickart modules (i.e. modules M such that for every nonzero endomorphism ? of M, the image of ? contains a nonzero direct summand of M). We show that the class of rings R for which every right R-module is wd-Rickart is exactly that of right semi-artinian right V-rings. We prove that a module M is dual Baer if and only if M is wd-Rickart and M has the strong summand sum property. Several structure results for some classes of wd-Rickart modules and dual Baer modules are provided. Some relevant counterexamples are indicated.
