Modules that have a supplement in every coatomic extension
Özet
Let R be a ring and M be an R-module. M is said to be an E*-module (respectively, an EE*-module) if M has a supplement (respectively, ample supplements) in every coatomic extension N, i.e. N/M is coatomic. We prove that if a module M is an EE*-module, every submodule of M is an E*-module, and then we show that a ring R is left perfect iff every left R-module is an E*-module iff every left R-module is an EE*-module. We also prove that the class of E*-modules is closed under extension. In addition, we give a new characterization of left V-rings by cofinitely injective modules.
