# STRONGLY IRREDUCIBLE SUBMODULES

• Published : 2005.02.01

#### Abstract

This paper is motivated by the results in [6]. We study some properties of strongly irreducible submodules of a module. In fact, our objective is to investigate strongly irreducible modules and to examine in particular when sub modules of a module are strongly irreducible. For example, we show that prime submodules of a multiplication module are strongly irreducible, and a characterization is given of a multiplication module over a Noetherian ring which contain a non-prime strongly irreducible submodule.
