an r-module m is called epi-retractable if every submodule of mr is a homomorphic image of m. it is shown that if r is a right perfect ring, then every projective slightly compressible module mr is epi-retractable. if r is a noetherian ring, then every epi-retractable right r-module has direct sum of uniform submodules. if endomorphism ring of a module mr is von-neumann regular, then m is semi-...

Let n | m be positive integers with the same prime factors, such that p3 | n for some prime p. We construct a noncrossed product division algebra D with involution ∗, of index m and exponent n, such that D possesses a Baer ordering relative to the involution ∗. Using similar techniques we construct indecomposable division algebras with involution possessing a Baer

Reinhold Baer asked the relationship between certain properties in a nonempty set P with a partial operation (called an “add" by Baer [1]). The first paper in our sequence [Paper I] answered his question for a special type of an add called a pregroup by Stallings [12]. This paper [Paper II] answers an analogous question for a wider class of adds.

Thirty two patients between 6 months and 14 years of age with tubercular meningitis were evaluated for brain stem auditory evoked response (BAER) and Visual evoked responses (VER), within 7 days of admission. Absolute latencies and interpeak latencies were compared with values obtained from normal children. BAER abnormality was found in 56.25% and VER in 28%children, respectively. BAER abnormal...

In [6], the compatibility of Baer involutions and elations was studied. Further compatibility results for translation planes of dimension 2 were obtained in [10]. For example [6, Theorem (2.2)], we have the following. Let n be a derivable translation plane of even order q, q # 2, with derivable net N. Let EL denote an elation group in the translation complement which fixes the component L of N ...

Abstract Let R be a ring and let M an -module with $$S={\text {End}}_R(M)$$ S = End R ( M ) . The module is called quasi-dual Baer if for every fully invari...

Throughout this paper, the ring R is not necessarily with an identity. We denote the set of all idempotents of R by E(R). Also, for a subset X ⊆ R, we denote the right (resp., left) annihilator of X in R by annr(X) (resp., ann (X)). Now, according to Fraser and Nicholson in [5], we call a ring R a left p.p.-ring, in brevity, l.p.p.-ring, if for all x ∈ R, there exists an idempotent e such that ...

If z has order q* and n is of the form n =m+q, then either k= m(q*+q+ l), or k= (m+q)(q*-q+ 1). Obviously, in case m=O, K is a maximal arc. Moreover, if m = 1 and q is a prime power, then K is either a Baer subplane or a unital [lo]. Furthermore, m pairwise disjoint Baer subplanes of n always yield a set of type (m, m + q) and size m(q* + q + 1). In case rc is Desarguesian, such a set does exis...

In this paper we develop an algebraic framework that allows us to extend families of two-valued states on orthomodular lattices to Baer ∗semigroups. We apply this general approach to study the full class of two-valued states and the subclass of Jauch-Piron two-valued states on Baer ∗-semigroups.
