Abstract
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.
