Abstract

In the present study , every module M is unitary and every ring F is commutative with identity. We gave a definition of a new class F − module which is namely S-pseudo bounded module symbolically (S-PS.B. F − module) and introduced some different approaches to attach this class with other types of well-known modules such that monoform module, quasi-Dedekind module, compressible module and retractable module. The main purpose of this article is to present a few new conditions for some corollaries and properties. The F − homomorphism of monoform and compressible modules connect in a useful way with an endomorphism of a F − module M that we relied on it in the definition of S-pseudo bounded module. We used the symbol End ( M ) which means the set of all endomorphism maps of F − module M . Also S-pseudo bounded module gave us directly or with some conditions different modules such as retractable module, an injective module and others.

1. Introduction

The notion of bounded module was studied by Carl Faith where (if there exists xM such that annF(M)=annF(x) then M is said to be bounded).1 Moreover, the concept of bounded submodule introduced with details by AL-LNI where (if there exists x such that annF()=annF(x), then is said to be bounded submodule of M ).2 The concept of almost bounded submodule was submitted by Buthyna Najad where (if there exists an element xM,x such that annF()=annF(x) then is called almost bounded submodule).3 Also, scalar modules and prime modules are involved in several properties as a condition to attach S-Pseudo bounded module with other modules. Note that if annF()=annF(x), for every submodule of M then M is said to be prime module.4 Furthermore, if M is finitely generated , then M is compressible Fmodule if and only if it is uniform and prime.5 This study investigates how S-PS.B. modules relate to other well-known module types offering new insights into these connections. We explore how these modules relate to monoform modules, compressible modules, critically compressible modules and Rickart modules directly or with some conditions.

In this article, we investigate a new class of module called S-Pseudo bounded module where in Section 2 some related facts are reviewed and Section 3 contained some definitions with examples while in Section 4 we introduced some significant relationships and connected with other modules.

3. S-Pseudo bounded modules

In this part, a new class of an Fmodule will be investigated with some definitions and examples related to S-PS.B. F -module which depends on an endomorphism map over an FmoduleM.

Definition 3.1

A proper submodule of a FmoduleM is called S-pseudo bounded Fsubmodule (symbolically S-PS.B. F -submodule) if there exists φ(x)S=End(M) such that φ(x) for some xM implies that annF()=annF(φ(x)).

Examples 3.2

1- Let M=24 as a 8module and =22¯. Define φ:MM by φ(a¯,b¯)=(a¯,2¯),(a¯,b¯)M. If (0¯,2¯)M then φ(0¯,2¯)=(0¯,2¯) . Therefore, ann8()=ann8φ(0¯,2¯), and hence is S-PS.B. 8 submodule of M.

2- Consider M=2 as a module and =20¯ , then there exists φ:MM defined by φ(a,b¯)=(a,0¯),(a,b¯)M clearly, φEnd(M). Now, suppose that x=(2,1¯)M . Sequently, φ(x)=φ(2,1¯)=(2,0¯) . Thus ann()=annφ(2,1¯)=0¯. Therefore, is S-PS.B. submodule of M.

3- Suppose that 6 as a module and M=6,=3¯ . An endomorphism φ:MM defined by φ(x¯)=0¯,x¯6,φ(x¯) if x¯=2¯6 , we have =annφ(2¯)=ann(0¯)ann3¯=2, is not S-PS.B. submodule.

We establish that every Endo-R.B. is S.PS.B. submodule but the converse is not necessary true in general. If is an Endo-R.B. then there exists φEnd(M) such that φ(x),for somexM implies that annF()=annFφ(x) by Ref. 7. But annFφ(x)={rF:rnannFφ(x),n+} and from above equality we get annFφ(x)=annF(). Hence, is S-PS.B. F submodule. But the converse is not true in general for example:

Let M=24 as module . Define φ:MM as: φ(a¯,b¯)=(0¯,b¯),(a¯,b¯)M if we take =0¯4,(1¯,2¯)M then φ(1¯,2¯)=(0¯,2¯), implies that annφ(1¯,2¯)=ann(0¯,2¯) = 2=2 and ann(0¯4)=4=2 .Thus is S-PS.B. submodule, but ann(0¯4)=4 is not equal to annφ(1¯,2¯)=ann(0¯,2¯)=2 . Therefore is not Endo-R.B. submodule.

Definition 3.3

A FmoduleM is said to be S-PS.B. Fmodule if every proper submodule of M is S-PS.B F submodule.

Examples 3.4

  • 1- p as a module is S-PS.B. module , where p is prime, since the only proper submodule of p is 0¯. If we define φ:22,φEnd(2) as φ(x¯)=2x¯,x¯2, then φ(x¯)0¯ and ann0¯=annφ(x¯)=. Hence p is S-PS.B. module.

  • 2- Consider 4 as a module. Define φ:44 as φ(a¯)=0¯,a¯4 . If we take M=4,=2¯, then φ(a¯), hence 4 is not S-PS.B. module, since if a¯=3¯4, then 2=ann()annφ(3¯)=.

4. S-Pseudo bounded modules with some modules

In this section, many modules played a major role in getting S-Pseudo bounded module such that monoform, compressible, quasi-Dedekind module and others modules. We get more results through several relationships.

Proposition 4.1

If M is a multiplication torsion-free Fmodule with ( F is an integral domain), then the following statements are equivalent

(i) M is S-PS.B. Fmodule.

(ii) M is monoform module.

Proof:

(i)(ii) Suppose that M is S-PS.B. Fmodule. Since M is a multiplication torsion-free, then M is finitely generated, by Remark (2.12) and Proposition (2.13). Therefore M is scalar by Corollary (2.10). By Proposition (2.14), every φEnd(M) is monomorphism. Suppose that φ:MM be an Fhomomorphism and i:M is inclusion map, then φi:M is monomorphism and M is monoform module.

(ii)(i) Let M is monoform module implies that M is uniform prime module and every submodule 0 of M is dense. Suppose that φEnd(M) such that φ:MM and φ(x)=tx,0xM,0tF. Since M is uniform, then tx. Hence annF()annFφ(x) and thus annF()annFφ(x). Let aannFφ(x) implies that an.φ(x)=0,for somen+ which implies an.(tx)=0 and ant(x)=0. Since is dense submodule and annF(M) is prime ideal of F, then tannF(x) and anannF(x)=annF(M)annF(). Thus annF()=annFφ(x) and M is S-PS.B. Fmodule.

However, the condition torsion-free is suffice to prove M is monoform module.

Corollary 4.2

Let M be a torsion-free S-PS.B. Fmodule. Then M is monoform module.

Proof:

Suppose that be any non-zero submodule of M. Since M is a torsion-free module, then xM there exists 0tF such that tx=0, we obtain x=0. Since M is S-PS.B. Fmodule , then φEnd(M) such that φ:MM and define as φ(x)=tx,xM and hence tx. Now, assume that 0xM, we have to show that tx0. Let tx=0 implies that x=0, since M is torsion-free module which is contradiction and thus tx0. Since is an artibrary submodule, then M is monoform module.

Proposition 4.3

If M is quasi-Dedekind S-PS.B. Fmodule, then M is monoform module.

Proof:

It is sufficient to show that every non-zero submodule of M is dense. Assume that is any non-zero submodule of M. Define φ:MM by φ(x)=tx,xM. Suppose that 0xM and tx=0 and since M is S-PS.B. Fmodule implies that tx and φ(x)=0 which means xkerφ. Since M is quasi-Dedekind module, then φ is monomorphism. Hence x=0 which is contradiction. Thus tx0 and is dense submodule.

Proposition 4.4

Every S-PS.B. Fmodule is retractable Fmodule.

Proof:

Assume that is a non-zero submodule of S-PS.B. Fmodule M, then there exists 0φEnd(M) such that φ:MM and defined as φ(x)=tx,0xM,φ(x) and annF()=annFφ(x). Let Hom(M,)=0 and i:M the inclusion map. Then φ=ig where g:M,g=0. Thus φ(x)=(ig)(x)=i(g(x))=0 that means annF()annFφ(x) which is a contradiction. Hence Hom(M,)00 of M. Therefore M is retractable Fmodule.

Conversely is not true in general, we have this example:

Consider 4 as a module and M=4,=2¯. Define φ:44 as φ(x¯)=0¯,x¯4,φEnd(4). Since φ(x¯),x¯4,Imφ then M is retractable module. But M is not S-PS.B module , since 2=ann(2¯)annφ(1¯)=, where 1¯4.

Proposition 4.5

If M is S-PS.B. torsion-free module, then M is critically compressible module.

Proof:

By Corollary (4.2) and Proposition (2.17) we get M is critically compressible.

Corollary 4.6

Let M be S-PS.B. Fmodule, then M is critically compressible Fmodule if and only if every non-zero partial endomorphism of M is monomorphism.

Proposition 4.7

If M is a duo S-PS.B. Fmodule, then M is fully retractable module.

Proof:

Since M is S-PS.B. Fmodule, then there exists φ is a non-zero endomorphism of M such that φ(x),xM and annF()=annFφ(x) where is a submodule of M. For every φEnd(M) we have φ(), since M is a duo. Thus the partial endomorphism of M is not zero and 0φ:M. Therefore M is retractable module, by Proposition (4.4) so that there exists 0ψ:M a homomorphism. Hence ψφ0 and thus M is fully retractable module.

Corollary 4.8

If M is a duo S-PS.B. Fmodule and End(M) is a domain, then M is polyform module.

Proof:

Assume that M is S-PS.B. Fmodule then by previous proposition, M is fully retractable module. Applying Proposition (2.18) we get the result.

Proposition 4.9

Let M be an uniform S-PS.B. Fmodule and End(M) is a domain. Then the following statements are equivalent:

(i) M is critically compressible module.

(ii) M is polyform module.

Proof:

(i)(ii) Suppose that M is critically compressible module, then M is monoform, by Corollary(4.6) and thus M is polyform.

(ii)(i) Assume that M is polyform module, then Corollary (2.22), M is monoform, since M is uniform. Since M is S-PS.B. Fmodule , then M is retractable. By Proposition (2.16), M is critically compressible module.

Corollary 4.10

If M is S-PS.B. uniform Fmodule where End(M) is a domain, then the following statements are equivalent:

(i) M is fully polyform module.

(ii) M is critically compressible module.

Proof:

If M is uniform, then polyform and fully polyform are equivalent, by Ref. 10.

Proposition 4.11

If M is a compressible Fmodule, then M is S-PS.B. Fmodule.

Proof:

Assume that φEnd(M) where φ:MM define as φ(x)=tx,xM. For each submodule 0 of M there exists h:M a monomorphism map, since M is a compressible module. If φ=ih where i is the inclusion map, then φ(x)=(ih)(x)=i(h(x))=h(x). Suppose that aannFφ(x) implies that an.φ(x)=0,for somen+,xM. Thus an.h(x)=0,xM so that h(anx)=0 and h(anx)=h(0) which means anx=0,xM. Hence aannF(M) and anannF(M)=annF(), since M is prime module. Therefore annFφ(x)=annF() and M is S-PS.B. Fmodule.

Proposition 4.12

Let M be a torsion-free multiplication Fmodule with ( F is an integral domain).Then M is S-PS.B. Fmodule if and only if M is a compressible module.

Proof:

Let M be S-PS.B. Fmodule . By Corollary (2.10) M is a scalar module and hence every φEnd(M) is monomorphism. Since M is retractable module by Proposition (4.4), then there exists a homomorphism 0f:M for every submodule 0 of M. Hence φ=if is monomorphism where i is an inclusion map. Thus f is a monomorphism and hence M is a compressible module.

Conversely, applying previous proposition.

Corollary 4.13

If M is a quasi-Dedekind retractable Fmodule, then M is S-PS.B. Fmodule .

Proof:

Every Fhomomorphism φEnd(M) is monomorphism, since M is a quasi-Dedekind. Hence M is a compressible module, by Proposition (2.15) and thus M is S-PS.B. Fmodule , by Proposition (4.11).

Corollary 4.14

If M is a finitely generated, then every uniform prime module is S-PS.B. Fmodule .

Proof:

Since M is a finitely generated implies that M is a compressible module, by (2.23). The result is obtained by Proposition (4.11).

Proposition 4.15

If M is a quasi-Dedekind Fmodule and φ(M)ψHom(F,)kerψ where φHom(M,F) and is a submodule of M, then M is S-PS.B. module.

Proof:

Suppose that φ(M)ψHom(F,)kerψ, then ψ:F such that 0ψφHom(M,). Thus M is retractable module. Since M is a quasi-Dedekind module, then M is S-PS.B. Fmodule by proposition (4.13).

Proposition 4.16

Let M is a quasi-Dedekind S-PS.B. Fmodule. Then annF(M)annF(M),M.

Proof:

Assume that M and annF(M)=annF(M). Hence [:FM]=annF(M)=annF(x),xM, since M is prime. Thus for every t such that tM and ty so that tx=0,x0,x,yM which is contradiction since M is monoform module by Proposition (2.18). Thus annF(M)annF(M).

Corollary 4.17

Let M is a quasi-Dedekind S-PS.B. Fmodule. Then M is not coprime Fmodule.

Proposition 4.18

Let M and M/ be a quasi-Dedekind Fmodule . Then M is S-PS.B. Fmodule .

Proof:

Suppose that φEnd(M) and φ:MM defined as φ(n)=tn,nM. Since M/ be a quasi-Dedekind module so if we define ψ:M/M/ as ψ(x+)=tx+,xM then either ψ=0 or ψ is a monomrphism. Let ψ0 and n+Kerψ then ψ(n+)= which means tn+=. Therefore, n+= so that n and tn,n. Hence annF()annFφ(n) . If ψ=0 we obtain tn+= so tn and also annF()annFφ(n). Now, let aannFφ(n) so an.φ(n)=0,for somen+ and an(tn)=0 then aannF(tn),tn. Thus aannF() and we get annF()=annFφ(n).

Proposition 4.19

If M is S-PS.B. Fmodule , then MtM.

Proof:

Assume that M=tM and φEnd(M) such that φ:MM and defined as φ(x)=tx,xM, since M is S-PS.B. Fmodule. Thus M is retractable by (4.4) which means Imφ for every submodule 0 of M. Therefore φ(M) so that tM and since M=tM implies M which is contradiction. Thus MtM.

Proposition 4.20

Let M is S-PS.B. Fmodule such that 0φEnd(M). Then φ is not epimorphism.

Proof:

Suppose that φEnd(M).φ0 Since M is S-PS.B. Fmodule, then M is retractable module ad there exists a homomorphism 0f:M, for every submodule 0 of M. Put φ=if:MM where i:M is the inclusion map. Therefore φ is not epimorphism.

Proposition 4.21

Let M be S-PS.B. torsion-free Fmodule . Then M is an injective.

Proof:

Since M a torsion-free and S-PS.B. Fmodule , so that M is a monoform module by Corollary (4.2) and thus there exists a non-zero monmorphism g:M defined by g(y)=y,y. Since M is S-PS.B. Fmodule, then M is retractable and there exists a homomorphism 0f:M defined by f(y)=y,yM. Moreover we consider the diagram

85895f37-4f02-4123-9f66-3f11991e6d21_Graphical1.gif

Suppose that yM, then (gf)(y)=g(f(y))=g(y)=IM . Thus gf=IM and the diagram is commutative so M is an injective Fmodule.

Proposition 4.22

If M is a torsion-free and S-PS.B. Fmodule, then End(M) has no zero-divisors.

Proof:

Suppose that φ,ψEnd(M) are two non-zero homomorphism implies that n,nM such that φ(n)=x0,ψ(n)=y0 where x,yM. Since M is monoform by (4.2) and thus M is quasi-Dedekind module. Hence φ,ψ are two F monomorphisms. Thus (φψ)(n)=φ(y)0 and (ψφ)(n)=ψ(x)0 which means End(M) has no zero-divisors.

Proposition 4.23

If M is torsion-free S-PS.B., then M is a Rickart Fmodule.

Proof:

Since M is an injective, by Proposition (4.21) and hence M is prime module since every torsion-free S-PS.B. Fmodule is monoform. By Proposition (2.20) we obtain that M is a Rickart.

Proposition 4.24

Let M be an indecomposable S-PS.B. Fmodule with M is N-Rickart. Then M is quasi-Dedekind.

Proof:

Suppose that M is S-PS.B. Fmodule , then M is a retractable module, by (4.4) and thus Hom(M,)0 for every non-zero submodule of M. Suppose that φ:MM is an endomorphism of M. Since M is N-Rickart, then kerφ is direct summand of M. Since M be an indecomposable so that kerφ=0. Thus φ is a Fmonomorphism and M is quasi-Dedekind module.

Proposition 4.25

Let M be a torsion-free S-PS.B. Then for each φEnd(M) there exists once φ is splits in M.

Proof:

From (4.23) we get M is a Rickart Fmodule , Consider the following short exact sequence 0kerφ=annMφ(x)MφM0 .

Consequently, kerφ is direct summand of M , since M is Rickart module. But kerφ=annMφ(x) which means φ is splits in M.

Proposition 4.26

Let M be a S-PS.B. Fmodule . Then End(M) is a Rickart ring if and only if M is a Rickart module.

Proof:

Since M is a S-PS.B. Fmodule, which means M is retractable module so that we get the result by (proposition (3.3), Ref. 16).

5. Conclusion

In our article, we have a new class of module called S-Pseudo Bounded and explain the relation of this module with other modules. Also, we introduced many nicely properties that join S-Pseudo Bounded with important modules such that monoform modules, retractable modules, quasi-Dedekind modules, and compressible modules. In addition, using S-Pseudo Bounded Fmodule as supposition lead us to get some statements that will be important for other who want to study in this field.
