Let R be a commutative ring with identity and M be a unitary R-module. A submodule N of M is called a dense submodule if $Hom_R(M/N,\;E_R(M))=0$, where $E_R(M)$ is the injective hull of M. The R-module M is said to be monoform if any nonzero submodule of M is a dense submodule. In this paper, among the other results, it is shown that any kind of the following module is monoform. (1) The prime R-module M such that for any nonzero submodule N of M, $Ann_R(M/N){\neq}Ann_R(M)$. (2) Strongly prime R-module. (3) Faithful multiplication module over an integral domain.

In this paper, all rings are commutative with nonzero identity. Let M be an R-module. A proper submodule N of M is called a classical prime submodule, if for each $m{\in}M$ and elements a, $b{\in}R$, $abm{\in}N$ implies that $am{\in}N$ or $bm{\in}N$. We introduce the concept of "weakly classical prime submodules" and we will show that this class of submodules enjoys many properties of weakly 2-absorbing ideals of commutative rings. A proper submodule N of M is a weakly classical prime submodule if whenever $a,b{\in}R$ and $m{\in}M$ with $0{\neq}abm{\in}N$, then $am{\in}N$ or $bm{\in}N$.

Let R be a commutative ring with 1 ≠ 0, n be a positive integer and M be an R-module. In this paper, we introduce the concept of weakly quasi n-absorbing submodule which is a proper generalization of quasi n-absorbing submodule. We define a proper submodule N of M to be a weakly quasi n-absorbing submodule if whenever a ∈ R and x ∈ M with 0 ≠ aⁿ x ∈ N, then aⁿ ∈ (N :_R M) or a^n-1 x ∈ N. We study the basic properties of this notion and establish several characterizations.

Assume that M is an R-module where R is a commutative ring. A proper submodule N of M is called a weakly 2-absorbing primary submodule of M if $0{\neq}abm{\in}N$ for any $a,b{\in}R$ and $m{\in}M$, then $ab{\in}(N:M)$ or $am{\in}M-rad(N)$ or $bm{\in}M-rad(N)$. In this paper, we extended the concept of weakly 2-absorbing primary ideals of commutative rings to weakly 2-absorbing primary submodules of modules. Among many results, we show that if N is a weakly 2-absorbing primary submodule of M and it satisfies certain condition $0{\neq}I_1I_2K{\subseteq}N$ for some ideals $I_1$, $I_2$ of R and submodule K of M, then $I_1I_2{\subseteq}(N:M)$ or $I_1K{\subseteq}M-rad(N)$ or $I_2K{\subseteq}M-rad(N)$.

Most of the research on weakly prime and weakly 2-absorbing modules is for modules over commutative rings. Only scatterd results about these notions with regard to non-commutative rings are available. The motivation of this paper is to show that many results for the commutative case also hold in the non-commutative case. Let R be a non-commutative ring with identity. We define the notions of a weakly prime and a weakly 2-absorbing submodules of R and show that in the case that R commutative, the definition of a weakly 2-absorbing submodule coincides with the original definition of A. Darani and F. Soheilnia. We give an example to show that in general these two notions are different. The notion of a weakly m-system is introduced and the weakly prime radical is characterized interms of weakly m-systems. Many properties of weakly prime submodules and weakly 2-absorbing submodules are proved which are similar to the results for commutative rings. Amongst these results we show that for a proper submodule Ni of an Ri-module Mi, for i = 1, 2, if N1 × N2 is a weakly 2-absorbing submodule of M1 × M2, then Ni is a weakly 2-absorbing submodule of Mi for i = 1, 2

Let G be an abelian monoid with identity e. Let R be a G-graded commutative ring, and M a graded R-module. In this paper we first introduce the concept of graded primal submodules of M an give some basic results concerning this class of submodules. Then we characterize the graded primal ideals of the idealization R(+)M.

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.

In this paper we give a full characterization of prime submodules of a finitely generated projective module M over a commutative ring R with identity. Also we study the existence of primary decomposition of a submodule of a finitely generated projective module and characterize the minimal primary decomposition of this submodule. Finally, we characterize the radical of an arbitrary submodule of a finitely generated projective module M and study submodules of M which satisfy the radical formula.

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.

Let R be a commutative ring, M be a Noetherian R-module, and N a 2-absorbing submodule of M such that r(N :_R M) = 𝖕 is a prime ideal of R. The main result of the paper states that if N = Q₁ ∩ ⋯ ∩ Q_n with r(Q_i :_R M) = 𝖕_i, for i = 1, . . . , n, is a minimal primary decomposition of N, then the following statements are true. (i) 𝖕 = 𝖕_k for some 1 ≤ k ≤ n. (ii) For each j = 1, . . . , n there exists m_j ∈ M such that 𝖕_j = (N :_R m_j). (iii) For each i, j = 1, . . . , n either 𝖕_i ⊆ 𝖕_j or 𝖕_j ⊆ 𝖕_i. Let Γ_E(M) denote the zero-divisor graph of equivalence classes of zero divisors of M. It is shown that {Q₁∩ ⋯ ∩Q_n-1, Q₁∩ ⋯ ∩Q_n-2, . . . , Q₁} is an independent subset of V (Γ_E(M)), whenever the zero submodule of M is a 2-absorbing submodule and Q₁ ∩ ⋯ ∩ Q_n = 0 is its minimal primary decomposition. Furthermore, it is proved that Γ_E(M)[(0 :_R M)], the induced subgraph of Γ_E(M) by (0 :_R M), is complete.
