Notes on Divisible and Torsionfree Modules

In this article, we first study the existence of envelopes and covers by modules of finite divisible and torsionfree dimensions. Then we investigate divisible and torsionfree dimensions as well as localizations of divisible and torsionfree modules over commutative rings. Finally, Gorenstein divisible and torsionfree modules are introduced and studied.     

几乎余挠模

In this paper, we introduce the concept of almost cotorsion modules. A module is called almost cotorsion if it is subisomorphic to its cotorsion envelope. Some characterizations of almost cotorsion modules are given. It is also proved that every module is a direct summand of an almost cotorsion module. As an application, perfect rings are characterized in terms of almost cotorsion modules.     

Relative Projective Modules and Relative Injective Modules

Let R be a ring, and n and d fixed non-negative integers. An R-module M is called (n, d)-injective if Ext ^d+1 _R (P, M) = 0 for any n-presented R-module P. M is said to be (n, d)-projective if Ext¹ _R (M, N) = 0 for any (n, d)-injective R-module N. We use these concepts to characterize n-coherent rings and (n, d)-rings. Some known results are extended.     

Strongly FP-injective modules

A module M is called strongly FP-injective if Extⁱ(P,M) = 0 for any finitely presented module P and all i≥1. (Pre)envelopes and (pre)covers by strongly FP-injective modules are studied. We also use these modules to characterize coherent rings. An example is given to show that (strongly) FP-injective (pre)covers may fail to be exist in general. We also give an example of a module that is FP-injective but not strongly FP-injective.     

Modules over serial rings

This paper continues the study of Noetherian serial rings. General theorems describing the structure of such rings are proved. In particular, some results concerning π-projective and π-injective modules over serial rings are obtained. Translated fromMatematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 65, No. 6, pp. 880–892 June, 1999.     

关于Gorensteincotorsion模

讨论了Gorensteincotorsion模与内射模之间的关系,证明了R是GorensteinvonNeumann正则环当且仅当任意R模M的Oorensteincotorsion包络与内射包络是同构的,当且仅当E（M）／M是Gorenstein平坦模,同时,也讨论了Gorensteincotorsion模与cotorsion模之间的联系。     

Divisible Is Injective over Krull Domains

It is well known that the equivalence of injectivity and divisibility characterizes the Dedekind domains. In this note, we shed more light on this problem and show that a similar property characterizes Krull domains and π-domains.     

$PS$-Injective Modules, $PS$-Flat Modules and $PS$-Coherent Rings

A left ideal $I$ of a ring $R$ is small in case for every proper left ideal $K$ of $R, K +I≠R$. A ring $R$ is called left $PS$-coherent if every principally small left ideal $Ra$ is finitely presented. We develop, in this paper, $PS$-coherent rings as a generalization of $P$-coherent rings and $J$-coherent rings. To characterize $PS$-coherent rings, we first introduce $PS$-injective and $PS$-flat modules, and discuss the relation between them over some spacial rings. Some properties of left $PS$-coherent rings are also studied.     

Divisible designs from twisted dual numbers

The generalized chain geometry over the local ring $K(\varepsilon ; \sigma)The generalized chain geometry over the local ring of twisted dual numbers, where K is a finite field, is interpreted as a divisible design obtained from an imprimitive group action. Its combinatorial properties as well as a geometric model in 4-space are investigated. Dedicated to Helmut M?urer on the occasion of his 70th birthday
