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...

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...

Various characterizations of finite convex geometries are well known. This note provides similar characterizations for possibly infinite convex geometries whose lattice of closed sets is strongly coatomic and spatial. Some classes of examples of such convex geometries are given.

let $r$ be an arbitrary ring with identity and $m$ a right $r$-module with $s=$ end$_r(m)$. the module $m$ is called {it rickart} if for any $fin s$, $r_m(f)=se$ for some $e^2=ein s$. we prove that some results of principally projective rings and baer modules can be extended to rickart modules for this general settings.

let $r$ be a commutative noetherian ring with non-zero identity, $fa$ an ideal of $r$, and $x$ an $r$--module. here, for fixed integers $s, t$ and a finite $fa$--torsion $r$--module $n$, we first study the membership of $ext^{s+t}_{r}(n, x)$ and $ext^{s}_{r}(n, h^{t}_{fa}(x))$ in the serre subcategories of the category of $r$--modules. then, we present some conditions which ensure the exi...

we introduce the notions of t-dual rickart and strongly t-dual rickart modules. we provide several characterizations and investigate properties of each of these concepts. it is shown that every free (resp. finitely generated free) $r$-module is t-dual rickart if and only if $overline{z}^2(r)$ is a  direct summand of $r$ and end$(overline{z}^2(r))$ is a semisimple (resp. regular) ring. it is sho...
