Let $S$ and $R$ be rings, $n, d\geq 0$ be two integers or $n=\infty$. In this paper, first we introduce special (faithfully) semidualizing bimodule $_S(K_{d-1})_R$, and then introduce and study the concepts of $K_{d-1}$-$(n,d)$-injective…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity, and let $S$ be a multiplicative subset of $R$. In this paper, we introduce the notion of $S$-injective modules as a weak version of injective modules. Among other results, we provide an…

Let R be a commutative ring and S be an R-algebra. It is well-known that if N is an injective R-module, then Hom(S,N) is an injective S-module. The converse is not true, not even if R is a commutative noetherian local ring and S is its…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring. We give criteria for flatness of $R$-modules in terms of associated primes and torsion-freeness of certain tensor products. This allows us to develop a criterion for regularity if $R$ has…

Flat modules play an important role in the study of the category of modules over rings and in the characterization of some classes of rings. We study the e-flatness for semimodules introduced by the first author using his new notion of…

A semi-dualizing module over a commutative noetherian ring A is a finitely generated module C with RHom_A(C,C) \simeq A in the derived category D(A). We show how each such module gives rise to three new homological dimensions which we call…

Let $R$ be a ring and $S$ a multiplicative subset of $R$. In this note, we study the localization of $S$-injective modules and $u$-$S$-injective modules under $S$-Noetherian rings and $u$-$S$-Noetherian rings, respectively. The…

Let R be a commutative ring with identity, and let S be a multiplicative subset of R. Positselski and Sl\'avik introduced the concepts of S-strongly flat modules and S-weakly cotorsion R-modules, and they showed that these concepts are…

For a module-finite algebra over a commutative noetherian ring, we give a complete description of flat cotorsion modules in terms of prime ideals of the algebra, as a generalization of Enochs' result for a commutative noetherian ring. As a…

It is proved that the localization of an injective module E, over a valuation ring R, at a prime ideal J, is injective if J is not the subset of zero-divisors of R or if J or E is flat. It follows that localizations of injective modules…

We characterize left Noetherian rings in terms of the duality property of injective preenvelopes and flat precovers. For a left and right Noetherian ring $R$, we prove that the flat dimension of the injective envelope of any (Gorenstein)…

Injective modules play an important role in characterizing different classes of rings (e.g. Noetherian rings, semisimple rings). Some semirings have no non-zero injective semimodules (e.g. the semiring of non-negative integers). In this…

The purpose of this paper is to study finiteness conditions on injective hulls of simple modules over Noetherian Down-Up algebras. We will show that the Noetherian Down-Up algebras A(\alpha,\beta,\gamma) which are fully bounded are…

Let A be a noetherian commutative ring, and let I be an ideal in A. We study questions of flatness and I-adic completeness for infinitely generated A-modules. This is done using the notions of decaying function and I-adically free A-module.

Given a homomorphism of commutative noetherian rings R --> S and an S-module N, it is proved that the Gorenstein flat dimension of N over R, when finite, may be computed locally over S. When, in addition, the homomorphism is local and N is…

It is proved that a module M over a commutative noetherian ring R is injective if Ext^i((R/p)_p,M)=0 holds for every i\ge 1 and every prime ideal p in R. This leads to the following characterization of injective modules: If F is faithfully…

In this paper several characterizations of semi-compact modules are given. Among other results, we study rings whose semi-compact modules are injective. We introduce the property $\Sigma$-semi-compact for modules and we characterize the…

We establish a duality between injective envelopes and flat covers over a commutative Noetherian ring. One case of this duality states that a morphism is an injective envelope, if and only if its Matlis dual is a flat cover. We also show…

We use the type theory for rings of operators due to Kaplansky to describe the structure of modules that are invariant under automorphisms of their injective envelopes. Also, we highlight the importance of Boolean rings in the study of such…

Let $R$ be an associative ring with unit. Given an $R$-module $M$, we can associate the following covariant functor from the category of $R$-algebras to the category of abelian groups: $S\mapsto M\otimes_R S$. With the corresponding notion…
