Let R be a commutative Noetherian ring. The k-torsionless modules are defined in [7] as a generalization of torsionless and reflexive modules, i.e., torsionless modules are 1-torsionless and reflexive modules are 2-torsionless. Some properties of torsionless, reflexive, and k-torsionless modules are investigated in this paper. It is proved that if M is an R-module such that G-dimR(M)

Several characterizations are given of (Zelmanowitz) regular modules among the torsionless modules, the locally projective modules, the nonsingular modules, and modules where certain submodules are pure. Along the way, a version of the unimodular row lemma for torsionless modules is given, and it is shown that a regular ring is left self-injective if and only if every nonsingular left module is...

The category gp ( Λ ) of Gorenstein-projective modules over tensor algebra = A ⊗ k B can be described as the monomorphism mon , . In particular, Λ-modules are monic. this paper, we find similar relation between semi-Gorenstein-projective and -modules, via monic modules, namely, ⊥ ∩ Using this, it is proved that if weakly Gorenstein, then Gorenstein only each monic; Q with a finite acyclic quive...

In this paper, we study the problem when a finitely generated torsionless module is projective. Let Λ be an Artinian local algebra with radical square zero. Then a finitely generated torsionless Λ-module M is projective if Ext Λ (M,M) = 0. For a commutative Artinian ring Λ, a finitely generated torsionless Λ-module M is projective if the following conditions are satisfied: (1) Ext Λ (M,Λ) = 0 f...

If ∇ is a torsionless connection on the tangent bundle of a manifold M the Weyl curvature W is the part of the curvature in kernel of the Ricci contraction. We give a coordinate free proof of Weyl’s result that W vanishes if and only if (M,∇) is (locally) diffeomorphic to RP with ∇, when transported to RP, in the projective class of ∇LC , the Levi-Civita connection of the Fubini–Study metric on...

We prove that the associativity equations of two-dimensional topological quantum field theories are very natural reductions of the fundamental nonlinear equations of the theory of submanifolds in pseudo-Euclidean spaces and give a natural class of potential flat torsionless submanifolds. We show that all potential flat torsionless submanifolds in pseudo-Euclidean spaces bear natural structures ...
