In this paper, we study supplement submodules with respect to a torsion class of any torsion theory, generalizing the concepts of sa-supplement, extended S-supplement, Rad-supplement submodules, etc. We give some homological properties of this class of modules, which forms a proper class, and use them to characterize some rings in terms of those certain modules.

In this paper, we introduce and investigate the latticial counterparts of the conditions (Ci), i = 1, 2, 3, 11, 12, for modules. In particular, we study the lattices satisfying the condition (C1), we call CC lattices (for Closed are Complements), i.e. the lattices such that any closed element is a complement, that are the latticial counterparts of CS modules (for Closed are Summands). Applications of these results are given to Grothendieck categories and module categories equipped with a torsion theory. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we study module theoretic definitions of the Baer and related ring concepts. We say a module is s.Baer if the right annihilator of a nonempty subset of the module is generated by an idempotent in the ring. We show that s.Baer modules satisfy a number of closure properties. Under certain conditions, a torsion theory is established for the s.Baer modules, and we provide examples of s.Baer torsion modules and modules with a nonzero s.Baer radical. The other principal interest of this paper is to provide explicit connections between s.Baer modules and projective modules. Among other results, we show that every s.Baer module is an essential extension of a projective module. Additionally, we prove, with limited and natural assumptions, that in a generalized triangular matrix ring every s.Baer submodule of the ring is projective. As an application, we show that every prime ring with a minimal right ideal has the strong summand intersection property. Numerous examples are provided to illustrate, motivate, and delimit the theory. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Perfect Gabriel filters of right ideals and their corresponding right rings of quotients have the desirable feature that every module of quotients is determined solely by the right ring of quotients. On the other hand, symmetric rings of quotients have a symmetry that mimics the commutative case. In this paper, we study rings of quotients that combine these two desirable properties. We define the symmetric versions of a right perfect ring of quotients and a right perfect Gabriel filter — the perfect symmetric ring of quotients and the perfect symmetric Gabriel filter and study their properties. Then we prove that the standard construction of the total right ring of quotients $Q^r_{\rm tot}(R)$ can be adapted to the construction of the largest perfect symmetric ring of quotients — the total symmetric ring of quotients $Q^\sigma_{\rm tot}(R)$. We also demonstrate that Morita's construction of $Q^r_{\rm tot}(R)$ can be adapted to the construction of $Q^\sigma_{\rm tot}(R)$. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

For an ordinal α, a modular lattice L with 0 and 1 is α-atomic if L has dual Krull dimension α but each interval [0,x] with x < 1 has dual Krull dimension <α. The properties of α-atomic lattices are presented and applied to module theory. The endomorphism ring of certain types of α-atomic modules is a local domain and hence there is a Krull–Schmidt type theorem for those α-atomic modules. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A modular lattice L with 0 and 1 is called quotient finite dimensional (QFD) if [x,1] has no infinite independent set for any x∈L. We extend some results about QFD modules to upper continuous modular lattices by using Lemonnier's Lemma. One result says that QFD for a compactly generated lattice L is equivalent to Condition (C): for every m∈L, there exists a compact element t of L such that t∈[0,m] and [t,m[ has no maximal element. If L is not compactly generated, then QFD and (C) separate into two distinct conditions, which are analyzed and characterized for upper continuous modular lattices. We also extend to upper continuous modular lattices some characterizations of QFD modules with Gabriel dimension. Applications of these results are given to Grothendieck categories and module categories equipped with a torsion theory. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
