On Dedekind Modules

In this article the authors give the relation between a finitely-generated torsionfree Dedekind module M over a domain R and prime submodules of the 𝒪(M)-module M and the ring 𝒪(M). They also prove that M is a finitely-generated torsionfree Dedekind module over a domain R if and only if every semi-maximal submodule of R-module M is invertible.     

Submodules of Direct Sums of Compressible Modules

Let R be a ring. A right R-module M is called “essentially compressible” if it embeds in each of its essential submodules. Also a module X _R is called “completely essentially compressible” if every submodule of X _R is an essentially compressible R-module. In this aricle, it is shown that a right R-module M embeds in a direct sum of compressible right R-modules if and only if M _R is essentially compressible and every nonzero essentially compressible submodule of M _R contains a compressible submodule. Every essentially compressible R-module is shown to be retractable. Moreover, if either R _R has Krull dimension, or R is Morita equivalent to a right duo ring, then a right R-module embeds in a direct sum of compressible right R-modules if and only if it is completely essentially compressible.     

(n,d)-Injective covers,n-coherent rings,and (n,d)-rings

It is known that a ring R is left Noetherian if and only if every left R-module has an injective (pre)cover. We show that (1) if R is a right n-coherent ring, then every right R-module has an (n, d)-injective (pre)cover; (2) if R is a ring such that every (n, 0)-injective right R-module is n-pure extending, and if every right R-module has an (n, 0)-injective cover, then R is right n-coherent. As applications of these results, we give some characterizations of (n, d)-rings, von Neumann regular rings and semisimple rings.     

On simple singular gp - injective modules

We investigate von Neumann regularity of rings whose simple singular right R-modules are GP-injective. It is proved that a ring; R is strongly regular iff R is a weakly right duo ring whose simple singular right R-modules are GP-injective. And it is also shown that R is either a strongly right bounded ring or a zero insertive ring in which every simple singular right R-module is GP-injective are reduced weakly regular rings. Several known results are unified and extended.     

Modules over Endomorphism Rings

It is proved that A is a right distributive ring if and only if all quasiinjective right A-modules are Bezout left modules over their endomorphism rings if and only if for any quasiinjective right A-module M which is a Bezout left End (M)-module, every direct summand N of M is a Bezout left End(N)-module. If A is a right or left perfect ring, then all right A-modules are Bezout left modules over their endomorphism rings if and only if all right A-modules are distributive left modules over their endomorphism rings if and only if A is a distributive ring.     

On Divisible and Torsionfree Modules

A ring R is called left P-coherent in case each principal left ideal of R is finitely presented. A left R-module M (resp. right R-module N) is called D-injective (resp. D-flat) if Ext¹(G, M) = 0 (resp. Tor₁(N, G) = 0) for every divisible left R-module G. It is shown that every left R-module over a left P-coherent ring R has a divisible cover; a left R-module M is D-injective if and only if M is the kernel of a divisible precover A → B with A injective; a finitely presented right R-module L over a left P-coherent ring R is D-flat if and only if L is the cokernel of a torsionfree preenvelope K → F with F flat. We also study the divisible and torsionfree dimensions of modules and rings. As applications, some new characterizations of von Neumann regular rings and PP rings are given.     

ON X-EXTENDING AND X-CONTINUOUS MODULES

Let X be a left R-module. We characterize when the direct sum of two X-extending modules is X-extending via essential injectivity and pseudo injectivity of modules. As a corollary, we show that if extending modules M ₁ and M ₂ are relatively essentially injective and M ₁ is pseudo-M ₂-injective (or M ₂ is pseudo-M ₁-injective) then M ₁ ⊕ M ₂ is extending. Also we characterize when the direct sum of two CESS-modules is CESS. Some characterizations of almost Noetherian rings are also given by relative (quasi-) continuity of left R-modules.     

C-Pure Projective Modules

This paper investigates the structure of cyclically pure (or C-pure) projective modules. In particular, it is shown that a ring R is left Noetherian if and only if every C-pure projective left R-module is pure projective. Also, over a left hereditary Noetherian ring R, a left R-module M is C-pure projective if and only if M = N ⊕ P, where N is a direct sum of cyclic modules and P is a projective left R-module. The relationship C-purity with purity and RD-purity are also studied. It is shown that if R is a local duo-ring, then the C-pure projective left R-modules and the pure projective left R-modules coincide if and only if R is a principal ideal ring. If R is a left perfect duo-ring, then the C-pure projective left R-modules and the pure projective left R-modules coincide if and only if R is left Köthe (i.e., every left R-module is a direct sum of cyclic modules). Also, it is shown that for a ring R, if every C-pure projective left R-module is RD-projective, then R is left Noetherian, every p-injective left R-module is injective and every p-flat right R-module is flat. Finally, it is shown that if R is a left p.p-ring and every C-pure projective left R-module is RD-projective, then R is left Noetherian hereditary. The converse is also true when R is commutative, but it does not hold in the noncommutative case.     

Strongly radical supplemented modules

Z?schinger studied modules whose radicals have supplements and called these modules radical supplemented. Motivated by this, we call a module strongly radical supplemented (briefly srs) if every submodule containing the radical has a supplement. We prove that every (finitely generated) left module is an srs-module if and only if the ring is left (semi)perfect. Over a local Dedekind domain, srs-modules and radical supplemented modules coincide. Over a nonlocal Dedekind domain, an srs-module is the sum of its torsion submodule and the radical submodule.     

On quasi-injectivity and von Neumann regularity

The purpose of this note is to consider certain connections between injectivity,p-injectivity and a generalisation of quasi-injectivity notedGQ-injectivity (cf. definition below). It is proved that ifA is a leftGQ-injective ring andZ the left singular ideal ofA, thenA/Z is von Neumann regular andZ is the Jacobson radical ofA (this extends the well-known result ofY. Utumi for left continuous rings [9]). If the sum of any twoGQ-injective leftA-modules isGQ-injective, thenA is a left Noetherian, left hereditary, leftV-ring. Semi-prime rings whose faithful left modules areGQ-injective must be semi-simple Artinian. IfA is commutative, the following are equivalent: (1)A is a finite direct sum of field; (2) EveryGQ-injectiveA-module is injective; (3) AnyA-module isGQ-injective if, and only if, it isp-injective; (4) AnyA-module is quasi-injective if, and only if, it isp-injective. Also, a commutative ringA is hereditary Noetherian if, and only if, the sum of any twop-injectiveA-modules is injective.     

On the Prime Spectrum of X-Injective Modules

Let R be a commutative ring and M an R-module. The purpose of this article is to introduce a new class of modules over R called X-injective R-modules, where X is the prime spectrum of M. This class contains the family of top modules and that of weak multiplication modules properly. In this article our concern is to extend the properties of multiplication, weak multiplication, and top modules to this new class of modules. Furthermore, for a top module M, we study some conditions under which the prime spectrum of M is a spectral space for its Zariski topology.     

The phantom cover of a module

A morphism of left R-modules is a phantom morphism if for any morphism , with A finitely presented, the composition fg factors through a projective module. Equivalently, Tor₁(X,f)=0 for every right R-module X. It is proved that every R-module possesses a phantom cover, whose kernel is pure injective.If is the category of finitely presented right R-modules modulo projectives, then the association M?Tor₁(−,M) is a functor from the category of left R-modules to that of the flat functors on . The phantom cover is used to characterize when this functor is faithful or full. It is faithful if and only if the flat cover of every module has a pure injective kernel; this is equivalent to the flat cover being the phantom cover. The question of fullness is only reasonable when the functor is restricted to the subcategory of cotorsion modules. This restriction is full if and only if every phantom cover of a cotorsion module is pure injective.     

Direct products of simple modules over Dedekind domains

Let R be a (commutative) Dedekind domain and let the R-module M be a direct product of simple R-modules. Then any homomorphism from a closed submodule K of M to M can be lifted to M. Received: 9 December 2002     

On Invertible and Dense Submodules

Abstract

In this paper, the authors give a partial characterization of invertible, dense and projective submodules. In the final section, they give the equivalent conditions to be invertible, dense and projective submodules for a given an R-module M. They also provide conditions under which a given ring R is a Dedekind domain if and only if every non zero submodule of an R-module is locally free.     

Extending modules which are direct sums of injective modules and semisimple modules

It is proved that, if R is a right Noetherian ringM ₁ is an injective right R-module and M ₂ is a semisimple right R-module, then the right R-module M ₁ + M ₂ is extending if and only if M ₂ is (M ₁/Soc(M ₁))-injective.     

Weakly regular modules over normal rings

Under study are some conditions for the weakly regular modules to be closed under direct sums and the rings over which all modules are weakly regular. For an arbitrary right R-module M, we prove that every module in the category σ(M) is weakly regular if and only if each module in σ(M) is either semisimple or contains a nonzero M-injective submodule. We describe the normal rings over which all modules are weakly regular.     

The subring generated by the units in a compact ring

ABSTRACT

In this paper, the authors introduce the concept of integrally closed modules and characterize Dedekind modules and Dedekind domains. They also show that a given domain R is integrally closed if and only if a finitely generated torsion-free projective R-module is integrally closed. In addition, it is proved that any invertible submodule of a finitely generated projective module over a domain is finitely generated and projective. Also they give the equivalent conditions for Dedekind modules and Dedekind domains.

     

Weak Global Dimension of Coherent Rings

In this article, we study the weak global dimension of coherent rings in terms of the left FP-injective resolutions of modules. Let R be a left coherent ring and ? ? the class of all FP-injective left R-modules. It is shown that wD(R) ≤ n (n ≥ 1) if and only if every nth ? ?-syzygy of a left R-module is FP-injective; and wD(R) ≤ n (n ≥ 2) if and only if every (n ? 2)th ? ?-syzygy in a minimal ? ?-resolution of a left R-module has an FP-injective cover with the unique mapping property. Some results for the weak global dimension of commutative coherent rings are also given.     

Relative <Emphasis Type="Italic">FI</Emphasis>-injective and <Emphasis Type="Italic">FI</Emphasis>-flat modules

Let R be a ring, n a fixed nonnegative integer and FP _n (F _n ) the class of all left (right) R-modules of FP-injective (flat) dimensions at most n. A left R-module M (resp., right R-module F) is called n-FI-injective (resp., n-FI-flat) if Ext ¹(N,M) = 0 (resp., Tor ₁(F,N) = 0) for any N ∈ FP _n . It is shown that a left R-module M over any ring R is n-FI-injective if and only if M is a kernel of an FP _n -precover f: A → B with A injective. For a left coherent ring R, it is proven that a finitely presented right R-module M is n-FI-flat if and only if M is a cokernel of an F _n -preenvelope K → F of a right R-module K with F projective if and only if M ∈^⊥ F _n . These classes of modules are used to construct cotorsion theories and to characterize the global dimension of a ring.
