We show that a formal power series ring $A[[X]]$ over a noetherian ring $A$ is not a projective module unless $A$ is artinian. However, if $(A,{\mathfrak m})$ is local, then $A[[X]]$ behaves like a projective module in the sense that…
It is proved, among other results, that a prime right nonsingular ring (in particular, a simple ring) $R$ is right self-injective if $R_R$ is invariant under automorphisms of its injective hull. This answers two questions raised by Singh…
A right $R$-module $M$ is said to be {\it FI-extending} if any fully invariant submodule of $M$ is essential in a direct summand of $M$. In this short note we prove that if $R$ has ACC on the right annihilators, then $R_R$ is FI-extending…
In this paper, we investigate the question of when a $\phi$-ring is $\phi$-Pr\"ufer using two types of techniques: first, by analysing the lattice structure of the nonnil ideals of $\phi$-rings; and secondly, by considering content ideal…
Let $\mathcal{U}=\left[ \begin{array}{cc} \mathcal{A} & \mathcal{M} \mathcal{N}& \mathcal{B} \end{array} \right]$ be a generalized matrix ring, where $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ are 2-torsion free. We prove that if $\phi…
An exchange ring $R$ is separative provided that for all finitely generated projective right $R$-modules $A$ and $B$, $A\oplus A\cong A\oplus B\cong B\oplus B\Longrightarrow A\cong B$. Let $R$ be a separative exchange ring in which $2$ is…
We prove that for a Frobenius extension, if a module over the extension ring is Gorenstein projective, then its underlying module over the the base ring is Gorenstein projective; the converse holds if the Frobenius extension is either…
Let $T=\biggl(\begin{matrix} A&0\\ U&B \end{matrix}\biggr)$ be a formal triangular matrix ring, where $A$ and $B$ are rings and $U$ is a $(B, A)$-bimodule. We prove that: (1) If $U_A$ and $_B U$ have finite flat dimensions, then a left…
We show that every finitely generated cohomologically trivial module over $RG$, where $G$ is a finite $p$-group and $R$ is a $p$-adic ring, splits as the direct sum of a finite cohomologically trivial $RG$-module and a free $RG$-module.…
In this paper, we introduce and study the class $S$-$\mathcal{F}$-ML of $S$-Mittag-Leffler modules with respect to all flat modules. We show that a ring $R$ is $S$-coherent if and only if $S$-$\mathcal{F}$-ML is closed under submodules. As…
Let $P$ be a finitely generated commutative semiring. It was shown recently that if $P$ is a parasemifield (i.e. the multiplicative reduct of $P$ is a group) then $P$ cannot contain the positive rationals $\mathbb{Q}^+$ as its subsemiring.…
A $*$-ring $R$ is called (strongly) $*$-clean if every element of $R$ is the sum of a projection and a unit (which commute with each other). In this note, some properties of $*$-clean rings are considered. In particular, a new class of…
In this note, we investigate the Baer splitting problem over commutative rings. In particular, we show that if a commutative ring $R$ is $\tau_q$-semisimple, then every Baer $R$-module is projective.
If $\hat{R} is the pure-injective hull of a valuation ring $R$, it is proved that $\hat{R}\otimes\_RM$ is the pure-injective of $M$, for each finitely generated module $M$. Moreover, $\hat{R}\otimes\_RM\simeq\oplus\_{1\leq k\leq…
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…
In this paper all rings are commutative. We prove some new results on flat epimorphisms of rings and pointwise localizations. Especially among them, it is proved that a ring $R$ is an absolutely flat (von-Neumann regular) ring if and only…
In this paper we give elementary conditions completely characterising when the theory of modules of a Pr\"ufer domain is decidable. Using these results, we show that the theory of modules of the ring of integer valued polynomials is…
Let $R$ by a right coherent ring and $R$-Mod denote the category of left $R$-modules. We show that there is an abelian model structure on $R$-Mod whose cofibrant objects are precisely the Gorenstein flat modules. Employing a new method for…
In this paper, we study the problem when a finitely generated torsionless module is projective. Let $\Lambda$ be an Artinian local algebra with radical square zero. Then a finitely generated torsionless $\Lambda$-module $M$ is projective if…
A local ring $R$ is regular if and only if every finitely generated $R$-module has finite projective dimension. Moreover, the residue field $k$ is a test module: $R$ is regular if and only if $k$ has finite projective dimension. This…
