Let $R$ be a commutative unital ring and $N$ be a submodule of an $R$-module $M$. The submodule $\langle E_M(N)\rangle$ generated by the envelope $E_M(N)$ of $N$ is instrumental in studying rings and modules that satisfy the radical…

A ring $R$ satisfies the {\it strong rank condition} (SRC) if, for every natural number $n$, the free $R$-submodules of $R^n$ all have rank $\leq n$. Let $G$ be a group and $R$ a ring strongly graded by $G$ such that the base ring $R_1$ is…

In this paper, we extend the study of graded equivalences to the case of general idempotent graded rings. We prove that the existence of a graded equivalence between two categories of graded torsion-free unital modules may be characterized…

We study the classes of modules which are generated by a silting module. In the case of either hereditary or perfect rings it is proved that these are exactly the torsion $\mathcal{T}$ such that the regular module has a special…

A topological commutative ring is said to be rigid when for every set $X$, the topological dual of the $X$-fold topological product of the ring is isomorphic to the free module over $X$. Examples are fields with a ring topology, discrete…

Let $S$ be a deeply embedded, equicharacteristic, Artinian Gorenstein local ring. We prove that if $R$ is a non-Gorenstein quotient of $S$ of small colength, then every totally reflexive $R$-module is free. Indeed, the second syzygy of the…

The singularity category of a ring makes only the modules of finite projective dimension vanish among the modules, so the singularity category is expected to characterize a homological property of modules of infinite projective dimension.…

To each finitely presented module $M$ over a commutative ring $R$ one can associate an $R$-ideal $\mathrm{Fitt}_{R}(M)$, which is called the (zeroth) Fitting ideal of $M$ over $R$. This is of interest because it is always contained in the…

We introduce the new notion of general bilinear forms (generalizing sesquilinear forms) and prove that for every ring $R$ (not necessarily commutative, possibly without involution) and every right $R$-module $M$ which is a generator (i.e.…

We uncover a connection between the model-theoretic notion of superstability and that of noetherian rings and pure-semisimple rings. We characterize noetherian rings via superstability of the class of left modules with embeddings.…

The generalized Morita-Miller-Mumford classes of a smooth oriented manifold bundle are defined as the image of the characteristic classes of the vertical tangent bundle under the Gysin homomorphism. We show that if the dimension of the…

A ring $R$ is said to be right McCoy if the equation $f(x)g(x)=0,$ where $f(x)$ and $g(x)$ are nonzero polynomials of $R[x],$ implies that there exists nonzero $s \in R$ such that $f(x)s = 0$. It is proven that no proper (triangular) matrix…

In this note, we show that a ring $R$ is $S$-coherent if and only if every finitely presented $R$-module is $S$-coherent, providing a positive answer to a question proposed in [D. Bennis, M. El Hajoui, {\it On $S$-coherence}, J. Korean…

We investigate the question of when free structures of infinite rank (in a variety) possess model-theoretic properties like categoricity in higher power, saturation, or universality. Concentrating on left $R$-modules we show, among other…

A ring is clean (resp. almost clean) if each of its elements is the sum of a unit (resp. regular element) and an idempotent. In this paper we define the analogous notion for *-rings: a *-ring is *-clean (resp. almost *-clean) if its every…

A ring R is Zhou nil-clean if every element in R is the sum of two tripotents and a nilpotent that commute. Let R be a Zhou nil-clean ring. If R is 2-primal (of bounded index), we prove that every square matrix over R is the sum of two…

We call a ring $R$ NJ-symmetric if $abc\in N(R)$ implies $bac\in J(R)$ for any $a,b,c\in R$. Some classes of rings that are NJ-symmetric include left (right) quasi-duo rings, weak symmetric rings, and abelian J-clean rings. We observe that…

In this paper we introduce the definition of a noetherian disjoint ring and that of a noetherian non-disjoint ring . For a noetherian ring R , with nilradical N if P and Q represent the semiprime ideals of R called as the right and the left…

Let $R$ be a ring and $M$ be a right $R$-module. $M$ is called neat-flat if any short exact sequence of the form $0\to K\to N\to M\to 0$ is neat-exact i.e. any homomorphism from a simple right $R$-module $S$ to $M$ can be lifted to $N$. We…

The following multi-determinantal algebraic variety plays a central role in algebra, algebraic geometry and computational complexity theory: ${\rm SING}_{n,m}$, consisting of all $m$-tuples of $n\times n$ complex matrices which span only…
