Relative critical composition series

From MaRDI portal





Using Krull dimension, \textit{G. Krause} [J. Pure Appl. Algebra 3, 385-397 (1973; Zbl 0275.16020)] and \textit{R. Gordon} and \textit{J. C. Robson} [Mem. Am. Math. Soc. 133 (1973; Zbl 0269.16017)] investigated modules with a critical composition series and showed that a Noetherian module has a critical composition series for which the Jordan-Hölder property holds. In this paper, these classical results are generalized in terms of a \(\tau\)-Krull composition series relative to a hereditary torsion theory \(\tau\). Then a module \(M\) is called \(\tau\)-Krull semicritical if there is a finite set of \(\tau\)-closed submodules \(N_1,N_2,\dots,N_m\) such that \(\bigcap N_i=0\) and \(M/N_j\) is \(\tau\)-Krull critical for all \(j\). The \(\tau\)-Krull semicritical modules are investigated. For example, if \(M\) is \(\tau\)-Krull semicritical, then \(K_\tau\text{-dim}(M/L)<K_\tau\text{-dim}(M)\) for every essential submodule \(L\) of \(M\), where \(K_\tau\text{-dim}\) denotes the \(\tau\)-Krull dimension of a module.
