-prime submodules

Abstract: Let

R

be a commutative ring with non-zero identity and

M

be a unitary

R

-module. Let

m a t h c a l S (M)

be the set of all submodules of

M

, and

p h i : m a t h c a l S (M) o m a t h c a l S (M) c u p e m p t y s e t

be a function. We say that a proper submodule

P

of

M

is a prime submodule relative to

p h i

or

p h i

-prime submodule if

a i n R

,

x i n M

with

a x i n P s e t m i n u s p h i (P)

implies that

a i n (P :_{R} M)

or

x i n P

. So if we take

p h i (N) = e m p t y s e t

for each

N i n m a t h c a l S (M)

, then a

p h i

-prime submodule is exactly a prime submodule. Also if we consider

p h i (N) = 0

for each submodule

N

of

M

, then in this case a

p h i

-prime submodule will be called a weak prime submodule. Some of the properties of this concept will be investigated. Some characterizations of

p h i

-prime submodules will be given, and we show that under some assumptions prime submodules and

p h i_{1}

-prime submodules coincide.
