‎Let $mathcal{A}$ be a commutative Banach algebra and $mathscr{X}$ be a left Banach $mathcal{A}$-module‎. ‎We study the set‎ ‎${rm Dec}_{mathcal{A}}(mathscr{X})$ of all elements in $mathcal{A}$ which induce a decomposable multiplication operator on $mathscr{X}$‎. ‎In the case $mathscr{X}=mathcal{A}$‎, ‎${rm Dec}_{mathcal{A}}(mathcal{A})$ is the well-known Apostol algebra of $mathcal{A}$‎. ‎We s...

By considering the notion of multiplication modules over a commutative ring with identity, first we introduce the notion product of two submodules of such modules. Then we use this notion to characterize the prime submodules of a multiplication module. Finally, we state and prove a version of Nakayama lemma for multiplication modules and find some related basic results. 1. Introduction. Let R b...

All rings are commutative with identity and all modules are unital. Let R be a ring, M an R-module and R (M), the idealization of M . Homogeneous ideals of R (M) have the form I (+)N where I is an ideal of R, N a submodule of M and IM ⊆ N . The purpose of this paper is to investigate how properties of a homogeneous ideal I (+)N of R (M) are related to those of I and N . We show that if M is a m...

In this note all rings are commutat ive rings with identity and all modules are unital. Let R be a commutat ive ring with identity. An R-module M is called a mult ipl icat ion module provided for each submodule N of M there exists an ideal I of R such that N = I M. Various propert ies of mult ipl icat ion modules are considered. If there is a common theme it is that the methods used generalise ...

Let Δ be an abelian group. By considering the notion multiplication of Δ-graded modules (see [7]) over a commutative Δ-graded ring with unity, we introduce the notion of product of two Δ-graded submodules which we use to characterize the Δ-graded prime submodules of a multiplication Δ-graded module. Finally we proved a graded version of Nakayama lemma for multiplication Δ-graded modules.
