Let R be a ring, M a right R-module, and n a fixed non-negative integer. M is called n-cotorsion if Extn+1 R N M = 0 for any flat right R-module N . M is said to be n-flat if ExtR M N = 0 for any n-cotorsion right R-module N . We prove that ( n n is a complete hereditary cotorsion theory, where n (resp. n) denotes the class of all n-flat (resp. n-cotorsion) right R-modules. Several applications...

Let R be a countable, principal ideal domain which is not a field and A be a countable R-algebra which is free as an R-module. Then we will construct an א1-free R-module G of rank א1 with endomorphism algebra EndRG = A. Clearly the result does not hold for fields. Recall that an R-module is א1-free if all its countable submodules are free, a condition closely related to Pontryagin’s theorem. Th...

Let (R,m) be a Noetherian local ring, M be a finitely generated R-module of dimension n and a be an ideal of R. In this paper, generalizing the main results of Dibaei and Jafari [3] and Rezaei [8], we will show that if T is a subset of AsshR M, then there exists an ideal a of R such that AttR Hna (M)=T. As an application, we give some relationships between top local cohomology modules and top f...

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and let $M$ be an $R$-module. In this paper we introduce a new graph associated to modules over commutative rings. We study the relationship between the algebraic properties of modules and their associated graphs. A topological characterization for the completeness of the special subgraphs is presented. Also modules whose associated graph is complete...

Let R be a commutative ring. For two (left) R-modules M and N , the set HomR(M,N) of allR-linear maps fromM toN is anR-module under natural addition and scaling operations on linear maps. (If R were non-commutative then the definition (r · f)(m) = r · (f(m)) would yield a function r · f from M to N which is usually not R-linear. Try it!) In the special case where N = R we get the R-module M∨ = ...

It is shown that each almost maximal valuation ring R, such that every indecomposable injective R-module is countably generated, satisfies the following condition (C): each fp-injective R-module is locally injective. The converse holds if R is a domain. Moreover, it is proved that a valuation ring R that satisfies this condition (C) is almost maximal. The converse holds if Spec(R) is countable....

in this paper we characterize the radical of an arbitrary‎ ‎submodule $n$ of a finitely generated free module $f$ over a‎ ‎commutatitve ring $r$ with identity‎. ‎also we study submodules of‎ ‎$f$ which satisfy the radical formula‎. ‎finally we derive‎ ‎necessary and sufficient conditions for $r$ to be a‎ ‎pr$ddot{mbox{u}}$fer domain‎, ‎in terms of the radical of a‎ ‎cyclic submodule in $rbigopl...

Let R be a ring and M a right R-module. Ng (1984) defined the finitely presented dimension f p dim M of M as inf n there exists an exact sequence Pn+1 → Pn → · · · → P0 → M → 0 of right R-modules, where each Pi is projective, and Pn+1 Pn are finitely generated . If no such sequence exists for any n, set f p dim M = . The right finitely presented dimension r f p dim R of R is defined as sup f p ...

In this handout we will briefly explore the topic of projective modules in a bit more detail than we covered in class. Throughout R is a commutative ring. Recall that, by definition, a projective module is an R-module that is a direct summand of a free R-module. As mentioned in class, if the ring R is decomposable, e.g., R = R1 ⊕R2 is a direct sum of rings, then there are many examples of non-f...

We introduce the notion of idempotent radical class of module coalgebras over a bialgebra B. We prove that if R is an idempotent radical class of B-module coalgebras, then every B-module coalgebra contains a unique maximal B-submodule coalgebra in R. Moreover, a B-module coalgebra C is a member of R if, and only if, DB is in R for every simple subcoalgebra D of C. The collection of B-cocleft co...
