Top-down design methodology is one of the widely used approaches to the design of complex concurrent systems. In this approach, the speciication of a system is decomposed into a set of submodules whose concurrent behavior is equivalent to that of the system speciication. The following problem is of particular importance when using this methodology: given the speciication of a system and some of...

A finitely generated $R$-module is said to be a module of type ($F_r$) if its $(r-1)$-th Fitting ideal is the zero ideal and its $r$-th Fitting ideal is a regular ideal. Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $N$ be a submodule of  $R^n$ which is generated by columns of  a matrix $A=(a_{ij})$ with $a_{ij}in R$ for all $1leq ileq n$, $jin Lambda$, where $Lambda $ is a (possibly infinite) index set.  ...

In a finite-dimensional vector space, every subspace is finite-dimensional and the dimension of a subspace is at most the dimension of the whole space. Unfortunately, the naive analogue of this for modules and submodules is wrong: (1) A submodule of a finitely generated module need not be finitely generated. (2) Even if a submodule of a finitely generated module is finitely generated, the minim...

in this paper we introduce the notions of g∗l-module and g∗l-module whichare two proper generalizations of δ-lifting modules. we give some characteriza tions and properties of these modules. we show that a g∗l-module decomposesinto a semisimple submodule m1 and a submodule m2 of m such that every non-zero submodule of m2 contains a non-zero δ-cosingular submodule.

‎let $r$ be a domain with quotiont field $k$‎, ‎and‎ ‎let $n$ be a submodule of an $r$-module $m$‎. ‎we say that $n$ is‎ ‎powerful (strongly primary) if $x,yin k$ and‎ ‎$xymsubseteq n$‎, ‎then $xin r$ or $yin r$ ($xmsubseteq n$‎ ‎or $y^nmsubseteq n$ for some $ngeq1$)‎. ‎we show that a submodule‎ ‎with either of these properties is comparable to every prime‎ ‎submodule of $m$‎, ‎also we show tha...

In this paper we introduce the notions of G∗L-module and G∗L-module whichare two proper generalizations of δ-lifting modules. We give some characteriza tions and properties of these modules. We show that a G∗L-module decomposesinto a semisimple submodule M1 and a submodule M2 of M such that every non-zero submodule of M2 contains a non-zero δ-cosingular submodule.

In this article, we develop the tool of saturation in the context of primary-like submodules of modules. We are particularly interested in relationships among the saturation of a primary-like submodule satisfying the primeful property and its radical. Furthermore, we provide sufficient conditions involving saturation and torsion arguments under which the radical of such a submodule is prime.

Let R be a commutative ring with identity and let M be a torsion free R-module. Several characterizations of distributive modules are investigated. Indeed, among other equivalent conditions, we prove that M is distributive if and only if any primal submodule of M is irreducible, and, if and only if each submodule of M can be represented as an intersection of irreducible isolated components. MSC...

Let V be a finite-dimensional F -vector space, and let T : V → V be a linear transformation. In this note we prove that V is a direct sum of cyclic T -invariant subspaces. More specifically, we prove that V is a direct sum of cyclic T -invariant subspaces whose annihilators are generated by powers of irreducible polynomials, and that the collection of these polynomials is uniquely determined. R...
