Let R be a commutative ring. An R-module M is said to be w-flat if Tor ^R₁ (M, N) is GV -torsion for any R-module N. It is known that every flat module is w-flat, but the converse is not true in general. The w-flat dimension of a module is defined in terms of w-flat resolutions. In this paper, we study the w-flat dimension of an injective w-module. To do so, we introduce and study the so-called w-copure (resp., strongly w-copure) flat modules and the w-copure flat dimensions for modules and rings. The relations between the introduced dimensions and other (classical) homological dimensions are discussed. We also study change of rings theorems for the w-copure flat dimension in various contexts. Finally some illustrative examples regarding the introduced concepts are given.

Let R be a ring and n a fixed non-negative integer. $\cal{TI}_n$ (resp. $\cal{TF}_n$) denotes the class of all right R-modules of FGT-injective dimensions at most n (resp. all left R-modules of FGT-flat dimensions at most n). We prove that, if R is a right $\prod$-coherent ring, then every right R-module has a $\cal{TI}_n$-cover and every left R-module has a $\cal{TF}_n$-preenvelope. A right R-module M is called n-TI-injective in case $Ext^1$(N,M) = 0 for any $N\;{\in}\;\cal{TI}_n$. A left R-module F is said to be n-TI-flat if $Tor_1$(N, F) = 0 for any $N\;{\in}\;\cal{TI}_n$. Some properties of n-TI-injective and n-TI-flat modules and their relations with $\cal{TI}_n$-(pre)covers and $\cal{TF}_n$-preenvelopes are also studied.

Let R be a ring. A right R-module M is called GI-flat if $Tor^R_1(M,G)=0$ for every Gorenstein injective left R-module G. It is shown that GI-flat modules lie strictly between flat modules and copure flat modules. Suppose R is an $n$-FC ring, we prove that a finitely presented right R-module M is GI-flat if and only if M is a cokernel of a Gorenstein flat preenvelope K ${\rightarrow}$ F of a right R-module K with F flat. Then we study GI-flat dimensions of modules and rings. Various results in [6] are developed, some new characterizations of von Neumann regular rings are given.

The aim of the Paper is to Obtain information about the flat covers and minimal flat resolutions of Artinian modules over a Noetherian ring. Let R be a commutative Noetherian ring and let A be an Artinian R-module. We prove that the flat cover of a is of the form $\prod_{p\epsilonAtt_R(A)}T-p$, where $Tp$ is the completion of a free R$_{p}$-module. Also, we construct a minimal flat resolution for R/xR-module 0: $_AX$ from a given minimal flat resolution of A, when n is a non-unit and non-zero divisor of R such that A = $\chiA$. This result leads to a description of the structure of a minimal flat resolution for ${H^n}_{\underline{m}}(R)$, nth local cohomology module of R with respect to the ideal $\underline{m}$, over a local Cohen-Macaulay ring (R, $\underline{m}$) of dimension n.

Let m and n be fixed positive integers and M a right R-module. Recall that M is said to be ($m$, $n$)-injective if $Ext^1$(P, M) = 0 for any ($m$, $n$)-presented right R-module P; M is said to be ($m$, $n$)-flat if $Tor_1$(N, P) = 0 for any ($m$, $n$)-presented left R-module P. In terms of some derived functors, relative injective or relative flat resolutions and dimensions are investigated. As applications, some new characterizations of von Neumann regular rings and p.p. rings are given.

A submodule N of a right R-module M is called coneat if for every simple right R-module S, any homomorphism $N{\rightarrow}S$ can be extended to a homomorphism $M{\rightarrow}S$. M is called coneat-flat if the kernel of any epimorphism $Y{\rightarrow}M{\rightarrow}0$ is coneat in Y. It is proven that (1) coneat submodules of any right R-module are coclosed if and only if R is right K-ring; (2) every right R-module is coneat-flat if and only if R is right V -ring; (3) coneat submodules of right injective modules are exactly the modules which have no maximal submodules if and only if R is right small ring. If R is commutative, then a module M is coneat-flat if and only if $M^+$ is m-injective. Every maximal left ideal of R is finitely generated if and only if every absolutely pure left R-module is m-injective. A commutative ring R is perfect if and only if every coneat-flat module is projective. We also study the rings over which coneat-flat and flat modules coincide.

In this paper we show that the flat property of a left R-module does not imply (carry over) to the corresponding inverse polynomial module. Then we define an induced inverse polynomial module as an R[x]-module, i.e., given an R-linear map f : M $\rightarrow$ N of left R-modules, we define $N+x^{-1}M[x^{-1}]$ as a left R[x]-module. Given an exact sequence of left R-modules $$0\;{\rightarrow}\;N\;{\rightarrow}\;E^0\;{\rightarrow}\;E^1\;{\rightarrow}\;0$$, where $E^0$, $E^1$ injective, we show $E^1\;+\;x^{-1}E^0[[x^{-1}]]$ is not an injective left R[x]-module, while $E^0[[x^{-1}]]$ is an injective left R[x]-module. Make a left R-module N as a left R[x]-module by xN = 0. We show inj $dim_R$ N = n implies inj $dim_{R[x]}$ N = n + 1 by using the induced inverse polynomial modules and their properties.

In this paper, we introduce the notion of Gorenstein (m, n)-flat modules as an extension of (m, n)-flat left R-modules over a ring R, where m and n are two fixed positive integers. We demonstrate that the class of all Gorenstein (m, n)-flat modules forms a Kaplansky class and establish that (𝓖𝓕_m,n(R),𝓖𝓒_m,n(R)) constitutes a hereditary perfect cotorsion pair (where 𝓖𝓕_m,n(R) denotes the class of Gorenstein (m, n)-flat modules and 𝓖𝓒_m,n(R) refers to the class of Gorenstein (m, n)-cotorsion modules) over slightly (m, n)-coherent rings.

Let R be a ring and $Nil_*$(R) be the prime radical of R. In this paper, we say that a ring R is left $Nil_*$-coherent if $Nil_*$(R) is coherent as a left R-module. The concept is introduced as the generalization of left J-coherent rings and semiprime rings. Some properties of $Nil_*$-coherent rings are also studied in terms of N-injective modules and N-flat modules.

A submodule N of a module M is called ${\mathcal{S}}$-closed (in M) if M/N is nonsingular. It is well-known that the class Closed of short exact sequences determined by closed submodules is a proper class in the sense of Buchsbaum. However, the class $\mathcal{S}-Closed$ of short exact sequences determined by $\mathcal{S}$-closed submodules need not be a proper class. In the first part of the paper, we describe the smallest proper class ${\langle}\mathcal{S-Closed}{\rangle}$ containing $\mathcal{S-Closed}$ in terms of $\mathcal{S}$-closed submodules. We show that this class coincides with the proper classes projectively generated by Goldie torsion modules and coprojectively generated by nonsingular modules. Moreover, for a right nonsingular ring R, it coincides with the proper class generated by neat submodules if and only if R is a right SI-ring. In abelian groups, the elements of this class are exactly torsionsplitting. In the second part, coprojective modules of this class which we call ec-flat modules are also investigated. We prove that injective modules are ec-flat if and only if each injective hull of a Goldie torsion module is projective if and only if every Goldie torsion module embeds in a projective module. For a left Noetherian right nonsingular ring R of which the identity element is a sum of orthogonal primitive idempotents, we prove that the class ${\langle}\mathcal{S-Closed}{\rangle}$ coincides with the class of pure-exact sequences of modules if and only if R is a two-sided hereditary, two-sided $\mathcal{CS}$-ring and every singular right module is a direct sum of finitely presented modules.
