Abstract

In this paper, we introduce and study the notions of τq\tau_q-flat modules and τq\tau_q-coheret rings. First, by investigating the Nagata rings of τq\tau_q-torsion theory, we show that the small finitistic dimensions of T(R[x])(R[x]) are all equal to 00 for any ring RR. Then, we introduce the notion of τq\tau_q-VN regular rings (i.e. over which all modules are τq\tau_q-flat), and show that a ring RR is a τq\tau_q-VN regular ring if and only if T(R[x])(R[x]) is a von Neumann regular ring. Finally, we obtain the Chase theorem for τq\tau_q-coheret rings: a ring RR is τq\tau_q-coherent if and only if any direct product of RR is τq\tau_q-flat if and only if any direct product of flat RR-modules is τq\tau_q-flat. Some examples are provided to compare with the known conceptions.
