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.     

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.     

On 𝒦-Nonsingular Modules and Applications

We introduce the notion of 𝒦-nonsingularity of a module and show that the class of 𝒦-nonsingular modules properly contains the classes of nonsingular modules and of polyform modules. A necessary and sufficient condition is provided to ensure that this property is preserved under direct sums. Connections of 𝒦-nonsingular modules to their endomorphism rings are investigated. Rings for which all modules are 𝒦-nonsingular are precisely determined. Applications include a type theory decomposition for 𝒦-nonsingular extending modules and internal characterizations for 𝒦-nonsingular continuous modules which are of type I, type II, and type III, respectively.     

主拟-Baer模

In this paper, we give the equivalent characterizations of principally quasi-Baer modules, and show that any direct summand of a principally quasi-Baer module inherits the property and any finite direct sum of mutually subisomorphic principally quasi-Baer modules is also principally quasi-Baer. Moreover, we prove that left principally quasi-Baer rings have Morita invariant property. Connections between Richart modules and principally quasi-Baer modules are investigated.     

Weak Rickart and dual weak Rickart objects in abelian categories

We introduce and investigate weak relative Rickart objects and dual weak relative Rickart objects in abelian categories. Several types of abelian categories are characterized in terms of (dual) weak relative Rickart properties. We relate our theory to the study of relative regular objects and (dual) relative Baer objects. We also give some applications to module and comodule categories.

Extending the star order to Rickart rings

Star partial order was initially introduced for semigroups and rings with (proper) involution. In particular, this order has recently been studied on Rickart *-rings. It is known that the star order in such rings can be characterized by conditions not involving involution explicitly. Owing to these characterizations, the order can be extended to certain special Rickart rings named strong in the paper; this extension is the objective of the paper. The corresponding order structure of strong Rickart rings is studied more thoroughly. In particular, the most significant lattice properties of star-ordered Rickart *-rings are successfully transferred to strong Rickart rings; also several new results are obtained.     

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.     

The diamond partial order for strong Rickart rings

The diamond partial order has been first introduced for matrices, and then discussed also in the general context of *-regular rings. We extend this notion to Rickart rings, and state various properties of the diamond order living on the so-called strong Rickart rings. In particular, it is compared with the weak space preorder and the star order; also existence of certain meets and joins under diamond order is discussed.     

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.     

Modules Whose Endomorphism Rings are Division Rings

The well-known Schur's Lemma states that the endomorphism ring of a simple module is a division ring. But the converse is not true in general. In this paper we study modules whose endomorphism rings are division rings. We first reduce our consideration to the case of faithful modules with this property. Using the existence of such modules, we obtain results on a new notion which generalizes that of primitive rings. When R is a full or triangular matrix ring over a commutative ring, a structure theorem is proved for an R-module M such that End _R (M) is a division ring. A number of examples are given to illustrate our results and to motivate further study on this topic.     

Soc-Injective Rings and Modules*

If M and N are right R-modules, M is called Socle-N-injective (Soc-N-injective) if every R-homomorphism from the socle of N into M extends to N. Equivalently, for every semisimple submodule K of N, any R-homomorphism f : K → M extends to N. In this article, we investigate the notion of soc-injectivity.     

拟-Armendariz模

For a right R-module N, we introduce the quasi-Armendariz modules which are a common generalization of the Armendariz modules and the quasi-Armendariz rings, and investigate their properties. Moreover, we prove that NR is quasi-Armendariz if and only if Mm(N)Mm(R) is quasi-Armendariz if and only if Tm(N)Tm(R) is quasi-Armendariz, where Mm(N) and Tm(N) denote the m×m full matrix and the m×m upper triangular matrix over N, respectively. NR is quasi-Armendariz if and only if N[x]R[x] is quasi-Armendariz. It is shown that every quasi-Baer module is quasi-Armendariz module.
