Auslander and Ringel-Tachikawa have shown that for an artinian ring R of finite representation type, every R-module is the direct sum of finitely generated indecomposable R-modules. In this paper, we will adapt this result to finite…
By any measure, semisimple modules form one of the most important classes of modules and play a distinguished role in the module theory and its applications. One of the most fundamental results in this area is the Wedderburn-Artin theorem.…
We consider the question of whether the injective modules generate the unbounded derived category of a ring as a triangulated category with arbitrary coproducts. We give an example of a non-Noetherian commutative ring where they don't, but…
Let $G$ be a finite group and exp$(G)$ = lcm$\{$ord$(g)$$\mid$$g \in G \}$. A finite unordered sequence of terms from $G$, where repetition is allowed, is a product-one sequence if its terms can be ordered such that their product equals the…
Let A be a local ring which admits an exact pair x,y of zero divisors as defined by Henriques and Sega. Assuming that this pair is regular and that there exists a regular element on the A-module A/(x,y), we explicitly construct an infinite…
Multiple binomial sums form a large class of multi-indexed sequences, closed under partial summation, which contains most of the sequences obtained by multiple summation of products of binomial coefficients and also all the sequences with…
A generating function of the number of homomorphisms from the fundamental group of a compact oriented or non-orientable surface without boundary into a finite group is obtained in terms of an integral over a real group algebra. We calculate…
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.…
Let $M_R$ be an injective right module over a ring $R$. The goal of this paper to prove that the endomorphism ring $S=(M_R)$ of $M$ is quasi-duo if and only if $M_R$ is square-free.
We extend a recent result that for the (additive) semigroup of positive integers $\mathbb{N}$, there are continuum many subdirect products of $\mathbb{N} \times \mathbb{N}$ up to isomorphism. We prove that for $U,V$ each one of $\mathbb{Z}$…
Let R be a commutative ring with unity, M a module over R and let S be a G-set for a finite group G. We define a set MS to be the set of elements expressed as the formal finite sum of the form similar to the elements of group ring RG. The…
Let G be a finite group of complex n by n unitary matrices generated by reflections acting on C^n. Let R be the ring of invariant polynomials, and \chi be a multiplicative character of G. Let \Omega^\chi be the R-module of \chi-invariant…
In [B] Bowen defined the growth rate of an endomorphism of a finitely generated group and related it to the entropy of a map $f:M \mapsto M$ on a compact manifold. In this note we study the purely group theoretic aspects of the growth rate…
Given a skeletally small category $\mathcal{C}$, we show that any locally finite endo-length $\mathcal{C}$-module is the direct sum of indecomposable $\mathcal{C}$-modules, whose endomorphism algebra is local.
Let $D$ be a division ring, $\mathcal V$ and $ \mathcal W$ vector spaces over $D$, and ${\mathcal L(\mathcal V,\mathcal W)}$ the ${\mathcal L(\mathcal W)}$-${\mathcal L(\mathcal V)}$ bimodule of all linear transformations from $\mathcal V$…
Let $R$ be a (possibly noncommutative) ring and let $\mathcal C$ be a class of finitely generated (right) $R$-modules which is closed under finite direct sums, direct summands, and isomorphisms. Then the set $\mathcal V (\mathcal C)$ of…
Let R be a ring (associative, with 1). A non-zero module M is said to be a Pruefer module provided there exists a surjective, locally nilpotent endomorphism with kernel of finite length. The aim of this note is construct Pruefer modules…
The objective of this paper is to determine the finite dimensional, indecomposable representations of the algebra that is generated by two complex structures over the real numbers. Since the generators satisfy relations that are similar to…
The functor that takes a ring to its category of modules has an adjoint if one remembers the forgetful functor to abelian groups: the endomorphism ring of linear natural transformations. This uses the self-enrichment of the category of…
We study the classical K\"othe's problem, concerning the structure of non-commutative rings with the property that: ``every left module is a direct sum of cyclic modules". In 1934, K\"othe showed that left modules over Artinian principal…
