Modules with ascending chain condition on annihilators and Goldie modules
Jaime Castro Pérez, Mauricio Medina Bárcenas, José Ríos Montes
Abstract
Using the concepts of prime module, semiprime module and the concept of ascending chain condition (ACC) on annihilators for an
R
-module
M
. We prove that if \
M
is semiprime \ and projective in
σ[M]
, such that
M
satisfies ACC on annihilators, then
M
has finitely many minimal prime submodules. Moreover if each submodule
N⊆M
contains a uniform submodule, we prove that there is a bijective correspondence between a complete set of representatives of isomorphism classes of indecomposable non
M
-singular injective modules in
σ[M]
and the set of minimal primes in
M
. If
M
is Goldie module then

where each

-injective module. As an application, new characterizations of left Goldie rings are obtained.
