In [5], DeMeyer extended one consequence of Wedderburn's theorem; that is, if R is a commutative ring with a finite number of maximal ideals (semi-local) and with no idempotents except 0 and 1 or if R is the ring of polynomials in one variable over a perfect field, then there is a unique (up to isomorphism) indecomposable finitely generated projective module over a central separable R-algebra A.

In (2), M. Auslander and O. Goldman laid the foundations for the study of central separable algebras. For unexplained terminology and notation, see (2). Here we are interested in projective modules and the ideal structure of a central separable algebra A over some special commutative rings K. When K is a field, one consequence of Wedderburn's Theorem is that there is a unique (up to isomorphism) irreducible A-module. We show here that if K is a commutative ring with a finite number of maximal ideals (semi-local) and with no idempotents other than 0 and 1 or if K is the ring of polynomials in one variable over a perfect field, then there is a unique (up to isomorphism) indecomposable finitely generated projective A-module. An example in (3) shows that this result fails if one only assumes that K is a principal ideal domain.

‎Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity‎, ‎and $n\geq 1$ an integer‎. ‎A proper submodule $N$ of an $R$-module $M$ is called‎ ‎an $n$-prime submodule if whenever $a_1 \cdots a_{n+1}m\in N$ for some non-units $a_1‎, ‎\ldots‎ , ‎a_{n+1}\in R$ and $m\in M$‎, ‎then $m\in N$ or there are $n$ of the $a_i$'s whose product is in $(N:M)$‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we study $n$-prime submodules as a generalization of prime submodules‎. ‎Among other results‎, ‎it is shown that if $M$ is a finitely generated faithful multiplication module over a Dedekind domain $R$‎, ‎then every $n$-prime submodule of $M$ has the form $m_1\cdots m_t M$ for some maximal ideals $m_1,\ldots,m_t$ of $R$ with $1\leq t\leq n$‎.

In § 1 of this note we first define the trace of an endomorphism of a projective module P over a non-commutative ring A. Then we call the trace of the identity the rank element r(P) of P, which we shall illustrate by several examples. For a projective module P over the groupalgebra of a finite group G, the rank element of P is essentially the character of G in P. In § 2 we prove that under certain assumption two projective modules Pi and P2 over an algebra over a complete local ring o are isomorphic if and only if their rank elements are identical. This is a type of proposition asserting that two representations are equivalent if and only if their characters are identical, and in fact, when A is the groupalgebra, the above theorem may be considered as another formulation of Swan’s local theorem [9]).

Let R be a regular noetherian ring. A central question concerning projective modules over polynomial R-algebras is the following.(1.1) BASS-QUILLEN CONJECTURE ([2] Problem IX, [10]). Every finitely generated projective module P over a polynomial R-algebra R[T], T = (T1,…, Tn) is extended from R, i.e.P≊R[T]⊗R P/(T)P.

We study some applications of the theory of commutative monoids to the monoid [Formula: see text] of all isomorphism classes of finitely generated projective right modules over a (not necessarily commutative) ring R.

Let R be a commutative ring with multiplicative identity and P is a finitely generated projective R-module. If P∗ is the set of R-module homomorphism from P to R, then the tensor product P∗⊗RP can be considered as an R-coalgebra. Furthermore, P and P∗ is a comodule over coalgebra P∗⊗RP. Using the Morita context, this paper give sufficient conditions of clean coalgebra P∗⊗RP and clean P∗⊗RP-comodule P and P∗. These sufficient conditions are determined by the conditions of module P and ring R.

Let M be a right R-module. It is shown that M is a locally Noetherian module if every finitely generated module in σ[M] is a direct sum of a projective module and a CS-module. Moreover, if every module in σ[M] is a direct sum of a projective module and a CS-module, then every module in σ[M] is a direct sum of modules which are either indecomposable projective or uniform Σ-quasi-injective. In particular, if every module in σ[M] is a direct sum of a projective module and a quasi-continuous module, then every module in σ[M] is a direct sum of a projective module and a quasi-injective module.

In this paper, we invoke theory of generalized inverses and minus partial order on regular matrices over a commutative ring to define rank–function for regular matrices and dimension–function for finitely generated projective modules which are direct summands of a free module. Some properties held by the rank of a matrix and the dimension of a vector space over a field are generalized. Also, a generalization of rank-nullity theorem has been established when the matrix given is regular.

Classically, trace was defined as the sum of the diagonal entries of a square matrix with entries in a field. This notion played an important role in classical mathematics, e.g. in the theory of algebras over a field of characteristic zero, and in the theory of group characters (as in [1]). A generalization to endomorphisms of a finitely generated projective module over any ring R with unit is well-known. For such a module P the canonical homomorphism Ψ: P* ⊗ P→ EndR(P) is an isomorphism. Then the composite ε˚Ψ-1: EndR(P) → P* ↗ P→ R, where e denotes “evaluation”, is a homomorphism which coincides with the classical trace whenever P is free. This version of trace has been used by Hattori [3] and others to study projective modules. However, this approach to trace is limited to the finitely generated projective modules, since it can be shown that Ψ is an isomorphism if and only if P is finitely generated and projective.

A ring R is called left QF-3 if it has a minimal faithful left R-module. The endomorphism ring of such a module has been recently studied in [7], where conditions are given for it to be a left PF ring or a QF ring. The object of the present paper is to study, more generally, when the endomorphism ring of a Σ-quasi-projective module over any ring R is left QF-3. Necessary and sufficient conditions for this to happen are given in Theorem 2. An useful concept in this investigation is that of a QF-3 module which has been introduced in [11]. If M is a finitely generated quasi-projective module and σ[M] denotes the category of all modules isomorphic to submodules of modules generated by M, then we show that End(RM) is a left QF-3 ring if and only if the quotient module of M modulo its torsion submodule (in the torsion theory of σ[M] canonically defined by M) is a QF-3 module (Corollary 4). Finally, we apply these results to the study of the endomorphism ring of a minimal faithful R-module over a left QF-3 ring, extending some of the results of [7].
