R denotes an associative ring with identity. Module means unitary right R-module. A module has finite Goldie dimension over R if it does not contain an infinite direct sum of nonzero submodules [6]. We say R has finite (right) dimension if it has finite dimension as a right R-module. We denote the fact that M has finite dimension by dim (M)<∞.A nonzero submodule N of a module M is large in M if N has nontrivial intersection with nonzero submodules of M [7]. In this case M is called an essential extension of N. N⊆′M will denote N is essential (large) in M. If N has no proper essential extension in M, then N is closed in M. An injective essential extension of M, denoted I(M), is called the injective hull of M.

In this paper we generalize to modules of singular submodule zero over a ring of singular ideal zero some of the results, which are well known for torsion-free modules over a commutative integral domain, e.g. [2, Chapter VII, p. 127], or over a ring, which possesses a classical right quotient ring, e.g. [13, § 5].Let R be an associative ring with 1 and let M be a unitary right R-module, the latter fact denoted by MR. A submodule NR of MR is large in MR (MR is an essential extension of NR) if NR intersects non-trivially every non-zero submodule of MR; the notation NR ⊆′ MR is used for the statement “NR is large in MR” The singular submodule of MR, denoted Z(MR), is then defined to be the set {m ∈ M| r(m) ⊆’ RR}, where

For a hereditary torsion theory τ, a moduleAis called τ-completedly decomposable if it is a direct sum of modules that are the τ-injective hull of each of their non-zero submodules. We give a positive answer in several cases to the following generalised Matlis' problem: Is every direct summand of a τ-completely decomposable module still τ-completely decomposable? Secondly, for a commutative Noetherian ringRthat is not a domain, we determine those torsion theories with the property that every τ-injective module is an essential extension of a (τ-injective) τ-completely decomposable module.

The aim of the present article is to investigate the structure of rings [Formula: see text] satisfying the condition: for any family [Formula: see text] of simple right [Formula: see text]-modules, every essential extension of [Formula: see text] is a direct sum of lifting modules, where [Formula: see text] denotes the injective hull. We show that every essential extension of [Formula: see text] is a direct sum of lifting modules if and only if [Formula: see text] is right Noetherian and [Formula: see text] is hollow. Assume that [Formula: see text] is an injective right [Formula: see text]-module with essential socle. We also prove that if every essential extension of [Formula: see text] is a direct sum of lifting modules, then [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text]-injective. As a consequence of this observation, we show that [Formula: see text] is a right V-ring and every essential extension of [Formula: see text] is a direct sum of lifting modules for all simple modules [Formula: see text] if and only if [Formula: see text] is a right [Formula: see text]-V-ring.

An associative ring R with identity is called a left (right) FPF ring if given any finitely generated faithful left (right) R-module A and any left (right) R-module M then M is the epimorphic image of a direct sum of copies of A. Faith and Page have asked if the subring of elements fixed by a finite group of automorphisms of an FPF ring need also be FPF. Here we present examples showing the answer to be negative in general.

The definition of injectivity, and the proof that every module has an injective extension which is a subextension of every other injective extension, are due to R. Baer [B]. An independent proof using the notion of essential extension was given by Eckmann-Schopf [ES]. Both proofs require the p reliminary construction of some injective overmodule. In [F] I showed how the latter proof could be freed from this requirement by exhibiting a set F in which every essential extension could be embedded. Subsequently J. M. Maranda pointed out that F has minimal cardinality. It follows that F is equipotent with the injective hull. Below Icon struct the injective hull by equipping Fit self with a module strucure.

In this paper we show that a direct decomposition of modulesM⊕N, withNhomologically independent to the injective hull ofM, is a CS-module if and only ifNis injective relative toMand both ofMandNare CS-modules. As an application, we prove that a direct sum of a non-singular semisimple module and a quasi-continuous module with zero socle is quasi-continuous. This result is known for quasi-injective modules. But when we confine ourselves to CS-modules we need no conditions on their socles. Then we investigate direct sums of CS-modules which are pairwise relatively inective. We show that every finite direct sum of such modules is a CS-module. This result is known for quasi-continuous modules. For the case of infinite direct sums, one has to add an extra condition. Finally, we briefly discuss modules in which every two direct summands are relatively inective.

AbstractA module is uniserial if its lattice of submodules is linearly ordered, and a ring R is left serial if R is a direct sum of uniserial left ideals. The following problem is considered. Suppose the injective hull of each simple left R-module is uniserial. When does this imply that the indecomposable injective left R-modules are uniserial? An affirmative answer is known when R is commutative and when R is Artinian. The following result is proved.Let R be a left serial ring and suppose that for each primitive idempotent e, eRe has indecomposable injective left modules uniserial. The following conditions are equivalent. (a) The injective hull of each simple left R-module is uniserial. (b) Every indecomposable injective left R-module is univerial. (c) Every finitely generated left R-module is serial.The rest of the paper is devoted to a study of some non-Artinian serial rings which serve to illustrate this theorem.

The concept of injectivity in classes of algebras can be traced back to Baer's initial results for Abelian groups and modules in [1]. The first results in non-module types of algebras appeared when Halmos [14] described the injective Boolean algebras using Sikorski's lemma on extensions of Boolean homomorphisms [19]. In recent years, there have been several results (see references) describing the injective algebras in other particular equational classes of algebras.In [10], Eckmann and Schopf introduced the fundamental notion of essential extension and gave the basic relations that this concept had with injectivity in the equational class of all modules over a given ring. They developed the notion of an injective hull (or envelope) which provided every module with a minimal injective extension or equivalently, a maximal essential extension. In [6] and [9], it was noted that these relationships hold in any equational class with enough injectives.

Let R be an associative ring with identity. If R is von- Neumann regular of a left v-ring, then for each left ideal, I, we have I2 = I. In this note we study rings such that for each left ideal L there exists an integer n = n(L)>0 such that Ln = Ln+1. We call such rings stable rings. We completely describe the stable commutative rings. These descriptions give rise to concepts related to, but more general than, finite Goldie dimension and T-nilpotence, and a notion of power pure.

AbstractDedekind domains, Artinian serial rings and right uniserial rings share the following property: Every cyclic right module is a direct sum of uniform modules. We first prove the following improvement of the well-known Osofsky-Smith theorem: A cyclic module with every cyclic subfactor a direct sum of extending modules has finite Goldie dimension. So, rings with the above-mentioned property are precisely rings of the title. Furthermore, a ring R is right q.f.d. (cyclics with finite Goldie dimension) if proper cyclic (≇ RR) right R-modules are direct sums of extending modules. R is right serial with all prime ideals maximal and ∩n ∈ ℕJn = Jm for some m ∈ ℕ if cyclic right R-modules are direct sums of quasi-injective modules. A right non-singular ring with the latter property is right Artinian. Thus, hereditary Artinian serial rings are precisely one-sided non-singular rings whose right and left cyclic modules are direct sums of quasi-injectives.
