A Cohen-type theorem for w-Artinian modules
Abstract
Let R be a commutative ring with identity. In this paper, a Cohen-type theorem for w-Artinian modules is given, i.e. a w-cofinitely generated R-module M is w-Artinian if and only if (M/annM(P))w is w-cofinitely generated for every prime w-ideal P of R. As a by-product of the proof, we also obtain a detailed representation of elements of a w-module and the w-theoretic version of the Chinese remainder theorem for both modules and rings.
