Let $(R, \mathfrak m)$ be a commutative noetherian local ring and $I$ an ideal of $R$. For every $R$-module $M$, $\gamma_I(M) = \sum\{ \operatorname{Bi} f \,|\, f \in \operatorname{Hom}_R(I,M)\}$ is called the trace of $I$ in $M$. It is…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with non-zero identity and $M$ be a unitary $R$-module. Let $\mathcal{S}(M)$ be the set of all submodules of $M$, and $\phi:\mathcal{S}(M)\to \mathcal{S}(M)\cup \{\emptyset\}$ be a function. We say that a…

In this paper, all rings are commutative with nonzero identity. Let $M$ be an $R$-module. A proper submodule $N$ of $M$ is called a classical prime submodule, if for each $m \in M$ and elements $a,b\in R$, $abm\in N$ implies that $am\in N$…

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…

We introduce a similarity relation between submodules of a module $M$ over a ring $R$, extending the classical notion of similarity for right ideals. Focusing on (faithfully) projective modules, we establish a sharp lower bound for the…

We study classes of modules closed under direct sums, $\mathcal{M}$-submodules and $\mathcal{M}$-epimorphic images where $\mathcal{M}$ is either the class of embeddings, $RD$-embeddings or pure embeddings. We show that the…

It is proved that if $R$ is a valuation domain with maximal ideal $P$ and if $R_L$ is countably generated for each prime ideal $L$, then $R^R$ is separable if and only $R_J$ is maximal, where $J=\cap_{n\in\mathbb{N}}P^n$.

In this paper, we construct indecomposable integrally closed modules of arbitrary rank over a two-dimensional regular local ring. The modules are quite explicitly constructed from a given complete monomial ideal. We also give structural and…

In this paper, we provide several new characterizations of the maximal right ring of quotients of a ring by using the relatively dense property. As a ring is embedded in its maximal right ring of quotients, we show that the endomorphism…

This paper studies infinite acyclic complexes of finitely generated free modules over a commutative noetherian local ring $(R,m)$ with $m^3=0$. Conclusive results are obtained on the growth of the ranks of the modules in acyclic complexes,…

We introduce the notion of strong $p$-semi-regularity and show that if $p$ is a regular type which is not locally modular then any $p$-semi-regular type is strongly $p$-semi-regular. Moreover, for any such $p$-semi-regular type, "domination…

In this paper, we show that under a mild condition, a principal submodule of the Bergman module on a bounded strongly pseudoconvex domain with smooth boundary in $\mathbb{C}^n$ is $p$-essentially normal for all $p>n$. This improves a…

Throughout this paper, $R$ is an associative ring (not necessarily commutative) with identity and $M$ is a right $R$-module with unitary. In this paper, we introduce a new concept of $\phi$-prime submodule over an associative ring with…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring. One may ask when a general $R$-module $P$ that satisfies $P \oplus R \cong R^n$ has a free summand of a given rank. M. Raynaud translated this question into one about sections of certain maps between Stiefel…

It is well-known that a class of all modules, which are torsion-free with respect to a set of ideals, is closed under injective envelopes. In this paper, we consider a kind of a dual to this statement - are the divisibility classes closed…

Let $G$ be a group with identity $e$ and $R$ a commutative $G$-graded ring with a nonzero unity $1$. In this article, we introduce the concepts of graded $r$-submodules and graded special $r$-submodules, which are generalizations for the…

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…

A direct sum decomposition theory is developed for direct summands (and complements) of modules over a semiring $R$, having the property that $v+w = 0$ implies $v = 0$ and $w = 0$. Although this never occurs when $R$ is a ring, it always…

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…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring. We investigate $R$-modules which can be written as \emph{finite} sums of {\it {second}} $R$-submodules (we call them \emph{second representable}). We provide sufficient conditions for an $R$-module $M$ to be…
