Flat Modules and Torsion Theories.
Fully inert submodules of torsion-free -modules are investigated. It is proved that if the module considered is either free or complete, these submodules are exactly those which are commensurable with fully invariant submodules; examples are given of torsion-free -modules for which this property fails.
Let and be two ring homomorphisms and let and be ideals of and , respectively, such that . In this paper, we investigate the transfer of the notions of Gaussian and Prüfer rings to the bi-amalgamation of with along with respect to (denoted by introduced and studied by S. Kabbaj, K. Louartiti and M. Tamekkante in 2013. Our results recover well known results on amalgamations in C. A. Finocchiaro (2014) and generate new original examples of rings possessing these properties.
