Let R be a commutative ring with identity and M be a unitary R-module. Let : S(M) −! S(M) [ {;} be a function, where S(M) is the set of submodules ofM. Suppose n 2 is a positive integer. A proper submodule P of M is called(n − 1, n) − -prime, if whenever a1, . . . , an−1 2 R and x 2 M and a1 . . . an−1x 2P(P), then there exists i 2 {1, . . . , n − 1} such that a1 . . . ai−1ai+1 . . . an−1x 2 P...

Let $R$ be a commutative ring and let $I$ be an ideal of $R$. In this paper, we will introduce the notions of 2-absorbing $I$-prime and 2-absorbing $I$-second submodules of an $R$-module $M$ as a generalization of 2-absorbing and strongly 2-absorbing second submodules of $M$ and explore some basic properties of these classes of modules.

In this paper we consider Artinian modules over power series rings endowed with a Frobenius map. We describe a method for finding the set of all prime annihilators of submodules which are preserved by the given Frobenius map and on which the Frobenius map is not nilpotent. This extends the algorithm by Karl Schwede and the first author, which solved this problem for submodules of the injective ...

Let R be a ring and M a right R-module. It is shown that: (1) M is Artinian if and only if M is a GAS-module and satisfies DCC on generalized supplement submodules and on small submodules; (2) if M satisfies ACC on small submodules, then M is a lifting module if and only if M is a GASmodule and every generalized supplement submodule is a direct summand of M if and only if M satisfies (P ∗); (3)...
