Review text

Let \(R\) be an associative ring with identity. All modules are unital left \(R\)-modules. Let \(V\) be an \(R\)-module. The author gives the definition: \(V\) is said to be a unique addition module (UAM) if it is not possible to change the addition of \(V\) without changing the action of \(R\) on \(V\). Denote \(M_R(V)=\{f\mid f\colon V\to V\) is a map such that \(f(rv)=rf(v)\) for all \(r\in R\) and \(v\in V\}\). The author establishes the results: 1) Let \(R\) be an integral domain such that \(1\) is not the only unit in \(R\), and let \(V\) be a torsion-free \(R\)-module. Then the following are equivalent: (i) \(M_R(V)=\text{End}_R(V)\). (ii) \(V\) can be embedded in the field of fractions of \(R\). (iii) \(V\) is UAM; 2) Let \(V\) be a torsion-free module over a principal ideal domain \(R\) (not a field) with finitely many prime ideals, then \(V\) is a UAM if and only if \(V\) has rank one. Also the author classifies the finitely generated unique addition modules over commutative Artinian rings.
