Let $(R,\m)$ and $(S,\n)$ be commutative Noetherian local rings, and let $\phi:R\to S$ be a flat local homomorphism such that $\m S = \n$ and the induced map on residue fields $R/\m \to S/\n$ is an isomorphism. Given a finitely generated…

In this paper we will investigate commutative rings which have the $\ast $-property. We say that a ring $R$ satisfy $\ast-$property if for any family of ideals $\left\{ I_{\alpha}\right\} _{\alpha\in S}$ of $R$ in which $S$ is an index set,…

Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian ring. The $n$-semidualizing modules of $R$ are generalizations of its semidualizing modules. We will prove some basic properties of $n$-semidualizing modules. Our main result and example shows that the…

We say that a subring $R_0$ of a ring $R$ is semi-invariant if $R_0$ is the ring of invariants in $R$ under some set of ring endomorphisms of some ring containing $R$. We show that $R_0$ is semi-invariant if and only if there is a ring…

In two recent papers (math.LO/0003164 and math.LO/0003165) we answered a question raised in the book by Eklof and Mekler (p. 455, Problem 12) under the set theoretical hypothesis of diamondsuit_{aleph_1} which holds in many models of set…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring. An $R$-module $M$ is said to be super finitely presented if there is an exact sequence of $R$-modules $\cdots\rightarrow P_n\rightarrow\cdots \rightarrow P_1\rightarrow P_0\rightarrow M\rightarrow 0$ where…

We introduce the notions of t-lifting modules and t-dual Baer modules, which are generalizations of lifting modules. It is shown that an amply supplemented module $M$ is t-lifting if and only if $M$ is t-dual Baer and a…

A first-order theory has the Schroder-Bernstein property if any two of its models that are elementarily bi-embeddable are isomorphic. We prove that if a countable theory T has the Schroder-Bernstein property then it is classifiable (it is…

An associative ring $R$ with identity is left pseudo-morphic if for every $a$$\in$$R$, there exists $b$$\in$$R$ such that $Ra=l_R(b)$. If, in addition, $l_R(a)=Rb$, then $R$ is called left morphic. $R$ is morphic if it is both left and…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring. Assume that $R$ has a pair $\{x,y\}$ of exact zerodivisors such that $\dim R/(x,y)\ge2$ and all totally reflexive $R/(x)$-modules are free. We show that the first and second Brauer--Thrall…

If $k$ is a field and $R$ is a commutative $k$-algebra, we explore the question of when the ring $D_{R|k}$ of $k$-linear differential operators on $R$ is isomorphic to its opposite ring. Under mild hypotheses, we prove this is the case…

Among the finitely generated modules over a Noetherian ring R, the semidualizing modules have been singled out due to their particularly nice duality properties. When R is a normal domain, we exhibit a natural inclusion of the set of…

In this paper we study the Schr\"{o}der-Bernstein problem for modules. We obtain a positive solution for the Schr\"{o}der-Bernstein problem for modules invariant under endomorphisms of their general envelopes under some mild conditions that…

Let R be a commutative domain. We prove that an R-module B is projective if and only if Ext^1(B,T)=0 for any torsion module T. This answers in the affirmative a question raised by Kaplansky in 1962.

Following a result of Hatori, Miura and Tagaki ([4]) we give here a spectral characterization of an isomorphism from a $C^\star$-algebra onto a Banach algebra. We then use this result to show that a $C^\star$-algebra $A$ is isomorphic to a…

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…

We provide a variant of Baer's theorem about isomorphism of endomorphism rings of vector spaces over division rings, where the full endomorphism rings are replaced by some subrings of finitary maps.

Let $A\subseteq B$ be a commutative ring extension. Let $\mathcal I(A, B)$ be the multiplicative group of invertible $A$-submodules of $B$. In this article, we extend a result of Sadhu and Singh by finding a necessary and sufficient…

Both the classes of $R$-coneat injective modules and its superclass, pure Baer injective modules, are shown to be preenveloping. The former class is contained in another one, namely, self coneat injectives, i.e. modules $M$ for which every…

Baer's Criterion for Injectivity is a basic tool of the theory of modules and complexes of modules. Its dual version (DBC) is known to hold for all right perfect rings, but its validity for non-right perfect rings is a complex problem…
