L. Fuchs has posed the problem of identifying those abelian groups that can serve as the additive structure of an injective module over some ring [1, p. 179], and in particular of identifying those abelian groups which are injective as modules over their endomorphism rings [1, p. 112]. Richman and Walker have recently answered the latter question, generalized in a non-trivial way [7], and have shown that the groups in question are of a rather restricted structure.In this paper we consider abelian groups which are quasi-injective over their endomorphism rings. We show that divisible groups are quasi-injective as are direct sums of cyclic p-groups. Quasi-injectivity of certain direct sums (products) is characterized in terms of the summands (factors). In general it seems that the answer to the question of whether or not a group G is quasinjective over its endomorphism ring E depends on how big HomE(H, G) is, with H a fully invariant subgroup of G.

AbstractIf H is a subgroup of an abelian group G and φ ∈ End(G), H is called φ-inert (and φ is H-inertial) if φ(H) ∩ H has finite index in the image φ(H). The notion of φ-inert subgroup arose and was investigated in a relevant way in the study of the so called intrinsic entropy of an endomorphism φ, while inertial endo-morphisms (these are endomorphisms that are H-inertial for every subgroup H) were intensively studied by Rinauro and the first named author.A subgroup H of an abelian group G is said to be fully inert if it is φ-inert for every φ ∈ End(G). This property, inspired by the “dual” notion of inertial endomorphism, has been deeply investigated for many different types of groups G. It has been proved that in some cases all fully inert subgroups of an abelian group G are commensurable with a fully invariant subgroup of G (e.g., when G is free or a direct sum of cyclic p-groups). One can strengthen the notion of fully inert subgroup by defining H to be uniformly fully inert if there exists a positive integer n such that |(H + φH)/H| ≤ n for every φ ∈ End(G). The aim of this paper is to study the uniformly fully inert subgroups of abelian groups. A natural question arising in this investigation is whether such a subgroup is commensurable with a fully invariant subgroup. This paper provides a positive answer to this question for groups belonging to several classes of abelian groups.

Abstract Extending a result by Alon, Linial, and Meshulam to abelian groups, we prove that if G is a finite abelian group of exponent m and S is a sequence of elements of G such that any subsequence of S consisting of at least $$|S| - m\ln |G|$$ elements generates G, then S is an additive basis of G . We also prove that the additive span of any l generating sets of G contains a coset of a subgroup of size at least $$|G{|^{1 - c{ \in ^l}}}$$ for certain c=c(m) and $$ \in = \in (m) < 1$$ ; we use the probabilistic method to give sharper values of c(m) and $$ \in (m)$$ in the case when G is a vector space; and we give new proofs of related known results.

AbstractLet X be a $$\mathbb {Q}$$ Q -factorial complete toric variety over an algebraic closed field of characteristic 0. There is a canonical injection of the Picard group $$\mathrm{Pic}(X)$$ Pic ( X ) in the group $$\mathrm{Cl}(X)$$ Cl ( X ) of classes of Weil divisors. These two groups are finitely generated abelian groups; while the first one is a free group, the second one may have torsion. We investigate algebraic and geometrical conditions under which the image of $$\mathrm{Pic}(X)$$ Pic ( X ) in $$\mathrm{Cl}(X)$$ Cl ( X ) is contained in a free part of the latter group.
