In this paper, we study a particular case of Gorenstein projective, injective, and flat modules, which we call, respectively, strongly Gorenstein projective, injective, and flat modules. These last three classes of modules give us a new characterization of the first modules, and confirm that there is an analogy between the notion of “Gorenstein projective, injective, and flat modules”and the no...

Let R be an associative ring with identity. It is shown that every Σ -cotorsion left R-module satisfies the descending chain condition on divisibility formulae. If R is countable, the descending chain condition on M implies that it must be Σ -cotorsion. It follows that, for countable R, the class of Σ -cotorsion modules is closed under elementary equivalence and pure submodules. The modules M t...

In this paper, we study the relation between m-strongly Gorenstein projective (resp. injective) modules and n-strongly Gorenstein projective (resp. injective) modules whenever m 6= n, and the homological behavior of n-strongly Gorenstein projective (resp. injective) modules. We introduce the notion of n-strongly Gorenstein flat modules. Then we study the homological behavior of n-strongly Goren...
