Birkenmeier and Heider, in [2], say that a ring R is right cP-Baer if the right annihilator of a cyclic projective right R-module in R is generated by an idempotent. These rings are a generalization of the right p.q.-Baer and abelian rings.…

We consider some existing results regarding rings for which the classes of torsion-free and non-singular right modules coincide. Here, a right $R$-module $M$ is non-singular if $xI$ is nonzero for every nonzero $x \in M$ and every essential…

Let $R$ be a ring. It is proved that an $R$-module $M$ is Baer (resp. dual Baer) if and only if every exact sequence $0\rightarrow X\rightarrow M\rightarrow Y\rightarrow 0$ with $Y\in$ Cog$(M_R)$ (resp. $X\in$ Gen$(M_R)$) splits. This shows…

We prove two generalizations of results proved by Bruhat and Tits involving metrical completeness and R-buildings. Firstly, we give a generalization of the Bruhat-Tits fixed point theorem also valid for non-complete R-buildings, but with…

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…

Recently, in a series of papers "simple" versions of direct-injective and direct-projective modules have been investigated. These modules are termed as "simple-direct-injective" and "simple-direct-projective", respectively. In this paper,…

An $n$-FC ring is a left and right coherent ring whose left and right self FP-injective dimension is $n$. The work of Ding and Chen in \cite{ding and chen 93} and \cite{ding and chen 96} shows that these rings possess properties which…

We prove that if $R$ is a commutative Noetherian ring, then every countably generated flat $R$-module is quite flat, i.e., a direct summand of a transfinite extension of localizations of $R$ in countable multiplicative subsets. We also show…

We prove that for a noetherian semilocal ring $R$ with exactly $k$ isomorphism classes of simple right modules the monoid $V^*(R)$ of isomorphism classes of countably generated projective right (left) modules, viewed as a submonoid of…

Let $R$ be a ring and denote by $\mathcal{FM}$ the class of all flat and Mittag-Leffler left $R$-modules. In \cite{BazzoniStovicek2} it is proved that, if $R$ is countable, the orthogonal class of $\mathcal{FM}$ consists of all cotorsion…

It is proved that, for a left hereditary ring, an arbitrary left module has a representation in the form of the direct sum of a stable left module and indecomposable projective left modules (if and only if an arbitrary left module has a…

In this paper, we compare $(n,m)$-purities for different pairs of positive integers $(n,m)$. When $R$ is a commutative ring, these purities are not equivalent if $R$ doesn't satisfy the following property: there exists a positive integer…

A general principle suggests that "anything flat is a directed colimit of countably presentable flats". In this paper, we consider resolutions and coresolutions of modules over a countably coherent ring $R$ (e.g., any coherent ring or any…

It is proved that every commutative ring whose RD-injective modules are $\Sigma$-RD-injective is the product of a pure semi-simple ring and a finite ring. A complete characterization of commutative rings for which each artinian…

Let R be a ring (not necessarily commutative). A left R-module is said to be cotorsion if Ext 1 R (G, M) = 0 for any flat R-module G. It is well known that each pure-injective left R-module is cotorsion, but the converse does not hold: for…

We prove the following;Theorem:Let R be a prime noetherian ring with k.dimR = n, n a finite non-negative integer. We refer the reader to the definitions (1.1) of this paper.For a fixed non-negative integer m, m<n let Xm be the full set of…

We study the conditions under which a TTF class in a module category over a ring is silting. Using the correspondence between idempotent ideals over a ring and TTF classes in the module category, we focus on finding the necessary and…

This article describes a Turing machine which can solve for $\beta^{'}$ which is RE-complete. RE-complete problems are proven to be undecidable by Turing's accepted proof on the Entscheidungsproblem. Thus, constructing a machine which…

Let $(R,\mathfrak{m},k)$ be a Noetherian local ring and let $M$ be a finitely generated $R$-module. The main focus of this paper is to give positive answers for some long-standing homological conjectures over the idealization ring $R\ltimes…

A module is called absolutely indecomposable if it is directly indecomposable in every generic extension of the universe. We want to show the existence of large abelian groups that are absolutely indecomposable. This will follow from a more…
