 On Hopfian and Co-Hopfian Modules

Yang Gang and Liu Zhong-kui

Abstract.  A R-module M is said to be Hopfian (respectively Co-Hopfian) in case any surjective (respectively injective) R-homomorphism is automatically an isomorphism. In this paper we study sufficient and necessary conditions of Hopfian and Co-Hopfian modules. In particular, we show that the weakly Co-Hopfian regular module RR is Hopfian, and the left R-module M is Co-Hopfian if and only if the left R[x]/(xn+1) -module M[x]/(xn+1) is Co-Hopfian, where n is a positive integer.

 

 

Keywords: Hopfian modules, Co-Hopfian modules, weakly Co-Hopfian modules, generalized Hopfian modules.
