Modules over endomorphism rings.

From MaRDI portal





All rings are assumed to be associative and to have non-zero identity. A module is called a Bezout module if all its finitely generated submodules are cyclic, and is called distributive if the lattice of its submodules is distributive. The main results established by the author are the following ones. For a ring \(A\), the following conditions are equivalent: (1) \(A\) is a right distributive ring; (2) every injective right \(A\)-module \(M\) is a Bezout left \(\text{End}(M)\)-module; (3) every quasi-injective right \(A\)-module \(M\) is a Bezout left \(\text{End}(M)\)-module; (4) for any quasi-injective right \(A\)-module \(M\) which is a Bezout left \(\text{End}(M)\)-module, every direct summand \(N\) of \(M\) is a Bezout left \(\text{End}(N)\)-module. For a right or left perfect ring \(A\), the following conditions are equivalent: (1) all right \(A\)-modules are Bezout left modules over their endomorphism rings; (2) all right \(A\)-modules are distributive left modules over their endomorphism rings; (3) \(A\) is a distributive ring.
