Fully prime rings (in which every proper ideal is prime) have been studied by Blair and Tsutsui, and fully semiprime rings (in which every proper ideal is semiprime) have been studied by Courter. For a given module M, we introduce the notions of a fully prime module and a fully semiprime module, and extend certain results of Blair, Tsutsui, and Courter to the category subgenerated by M. We also consider the relationship between the conditions (1) M is a fully prime (semiprime) module, and (2) the endomorphism ring of M is a fully prime (semiprime) ring.

In the various module generalizations of the concepts of prime (semiprime) for a ring, the question "when are semiprime modules subdirect product of primes?" is a serious question in this context and it is considered by earlier authors in the literature. We continue study on the above question by showing that: If R is Morita equivalent to a right pre-duo ring (e.g., if R is commutative) then weakly compressible R-modules are precisely subdirect products of prime R-modules if and only if dim(R) = 0 and R/N(R) is a semi-Artinian ring if and only if every classical semiprime module is semiprime. In this case, the class of weakly compressible R-modules is an enveloping for Mod-R. Some related conditions are also investigated.

Let G be a group. Let R be a G-graded commutative ring with identity and M be a G-graded multiplication module over R. A proper graded submodule Q of M is semiprime if whenever $I^nK{\subseteq}Q$, where $I{\subseteq}h(R)$, n is a positive integer, and $K{\subseteq}h(M)$, then $IK{\subseteq}Q$. We characterize semiprime submodules of M. For example, we show that a proper graded submodule Q of M is semiprime if and only if grad$(Q){\cap}h(M)=Q+{\cap}h(M)$. Furthermore if M is finitely generated then we prove that every proper graded submodule of M is contained in a graded semiprime submodule of M. A proper graded submodule Q of M is said to be almost semiprime if (grad(Q)$\cap$h(M))n(grad$(0_M){\cap}h(M)$) = (Q$\cap$h(M))n(grad$(0_M){\cap}Q{\cap}h(M)$). Let K, Q be graded submodules of M. If K and Q are almost semiprime in M such that Q + K $\neq$ M and $Q{\cap}K{\subseteq}M_g$ for all $g{\in}G$, then we prove that Q + K is almost semiprime in M.

For $M{\in}R-Mod$, $N{\subseteq}M$ and $L{\in}{\sigma}[M]$ we consider the product $N_ML={\sum}_{f{\in}Hom_R(M,L)}\;f(N)$. A module $N{\in}{\sigma}[M]$ is called an M-multiplication module if for every submodule L of N, there exists a submodule I of M such that $L=I_MN$. We extend some important results given for multiplication modules to M-multiplication modules. As applications we obtain some new results when M is a semiprime Goldie module. In particular we prove that M is a semiprime Goldie module with an essential socle and $N{\in}{\sigma}[M]$ is an M-multiplication module, then N is cyclic, distributive and semisimple module. To prove these results we have had to develop new methods.

Let R be a commutative ring with non-zero identity and M be a unitary R-module. Let S(M) be the set of all submodules of M and ${\phi}:S(M){\rightarrow}S(M){\cup}\{{\emptyset}\}$ be a function. We say that a proper submodule P of M is a ${\phi}$-semiprime submodule if $r{\in}R$ and $x{\in}M$ with $r^2x{\in}P{\setminus}{\phi}(P)$ implies that $rx{\in}P$. In this paper, we investigate some properties of this class of sub-modules. Also, some characterizations of ${\phi}$-semiprime submodules are given.

Let H be a finite dimensional Hopf algebra over a field k, and A be an H-module algebra over k which the H-action on A is D-continuous. We show that $Q_{max}(A)$, the maximal ring or quotients of A, is an H-module algebra. This is used to prove that if H is a finite dimensional semisimple Hopf algebra and A is a semiprime right(left) Goldie algebra than $A#H$ is a semiprime right(left) Goldie algebra. Assume that Asi a semiprime H-module algebra Then $A^H$ is left Artinian if and only if A is left Artinian.

Modules which satisfy the converse of Schur's lemma have been studied by many authors. In [6], R. Ware proved that a projective module P over a semiprime ring R is irreducible if and only if En $d_{R}$(P) is a division ring. Also, Y. Hirano and J.K. Park proved that a torsionless module M over a semiprime ring R is irreducible if and only if En $d_{R}$(M) is a division ring. In case R is a commutative ring, we obtain the following: An R-module M is irreducible if and only if En $d_{R}$(M) is a division ring and M is a multiplication R-module. Throughout this paper, R is commutative ring with identity and all modules are unital left R-modules. Let R be a commutative ring with identity and let M be an R-module. Then M is called a multiplication module if for each submodule N of M, there exists and ideal I of R such that N=IM. Cyclic R-modules are multiplication modules. In particular, irreducible R-modules are multiplication modules.dules.

Let M be a fixed left R-module. For a left R-module X, we introduce the notion of M-prime (resp. M-semiprime) submodule of X such that in the case M=R, it coincides with prime (resp. semiprime) submodule of X. Other concepts encountered in the general theory are M-$m$-system sets, M-$n$-system sets, M-prime radical and M-Baer's lower nilradical of modules. Relationships between these concepts and basic properties are established. In particular, we identify certain submodules of M, called "primeM-ideals", that play a role analogous to that of prime (two-sided) ideals in the ring R. Using this definition, we show that if M satisfies condition H (defined later) and $Hom_R(M,X){\neq}0$ for all modules X in the category ${\sigma}[M]$, then there is a one-to-one correspondence between isomorphism classes of indecomposable M-injective modules in ${\sigma}[M]$ and prime M-ideals of M. Also, we investigate the prime M-ideals, M-prime submodules and M-prime radical of Artinian modules.

In this paper we define and study a new kind of dimension called, semisimple dimension, that measures how far a module is from being semisimple. Like other kinds of dimensions, this is an ordinal valued invariant. We give some interesting and useful properties of rings or modules which have semisimple dimension. It is shown that a noetherian module with semisimple dimension is an artinian module. A domain with semisimple dimension is a division ring. Also, for a semiprime right non-singular ring R, if its maximal right quotient ring has semisimple dimension as a right R-module, then R is a semisimple artinian ring. We also characterize rings whose modules have semisimple dimension. In fact, it is shown that all right R-modules have semisimple dimension if and only if the free right R-module ${\oplus}^{\infty}_{i=1}$ R has semisimple dimension, if and only if R is a semisimple artinian ring.

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.
