We give some new properties of almost injective modules and their endomorphism rings, and also provide conditions as to when a direct sum of almost injective (or CS) modules is again almost injective (or CS) in some special cases..

LetR be a ring andM a rightR-module with S= End(MR). The moduleM is called almost principally quasi-injective (or APQ-injective for short) if, for any m∈M, there exists an S-submodule Xm of M such that lMrR(m) = Sm ⊕ Xm. The module M is called almost quasiprincipally injective (or AQP-injective for short) if, for any s∈ S, there exists a left ideal Xs of S such that lS(ker(s)) = Ss ⊕ Xs. In thi...

Let R be a ring and let M be a right R-module with S End MR . M is called almost general quasiprincipally injective or AGQP-injective for short if, for any 0/ s ∈ S, there exist a positive integer n and a left ideal Xsn of S such that s / 0 and lS Ker s Ss ⊕ Xsn . Some characterizations and properties of AGQP-injective modules are given, and some properties of AGQP-injective modules with additi...

an r-module m is called strongly noncosingular if it has no nonzero rad-small (cosingular) homomorphic image in the sense of harada. it is proven that (1) an r-module m is strongly noncosingular if and only if m is coatomic and noncosingular; (2) a right perfect ring r is artinian hereditary serial if and only if the class of injective modules coincides with the class of (strongly) noncosingula...

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. The purpose of this paper is to introduce and study two classes of modules over $R$, called $mbox{Max}$-injective and $mbox{Max}$-strongly top modules and explore some of their basic properties. Our concern is to extend some properties of $X$-injective and strongly top modules to these classes of modules and obtain some related results.

An R-module M is called strongly noncosingular if it has no nonzero Rad-small (cosingular) homomorphic image in the sense of Harada. It is proven that (1) an R-module M is strongly noncosingular if and only if M is coatomic and noncosingular; (2) a right perfect ring R is Artinian hereditary serial if and only if the class of injective modules coincides with the class of (strongly) noncosingula...
