Let $R$ be a ring and $S$ a multiplicative subset of $R$. An $R$-module $T$ is called uniformly $S$-torsion provided that $sT=0$ for some $sin S$. The notion of $S$-exact sequences is also introduced from the viewpoint of uniformity. An $R$-module $F$ is called $S$-flat provided that the induced sequence $0rightarrow Aotimes_RFrightarrow Botimes_RFrightarrow Cotimes_RFrightarrow 0$ is $S$-exact for any $S$-exact sequence $0rightarrow Arightarrow Brightarrow Crightarrow 0$. A ring $R$ is called $S$-von Neumann regular provided there exists an element $sin S$ satisfies that for any $ain R$ there exists $rin R$ such that $sa=ra^2$. We obtain that a ring $R$ an $S$-von Neumann regular ring if and only if any $R$-module is $S$-flat. Several properties of $S$-flat modules and $S$-von Neumann regular rings are obtained.
Let $R$ be a ring and $S$ a multiplicative subset of $R$. An $R$-module $P$ is called $S$-projective provided that the induced sequence $0rightarrow {rm Hom}_R(P,A)rightarrow {rm Hom}_R(P,B)rightarrow {rm Hom}_R(P,C)rightarrow 0$ is $S$-exact for any $S$-short exact sequence $0rightarrow Arightarrow Brightarrow Crightarrow 0$. Some characterizations and properties of $S$-projective modules are obtained. The notion of $S$-semisimple modules is also introduced. A ring $R$ is called an $S$-semisimple ring provided that every free $R$-module is $S$-semisimple. Several characterizations of $S$-semisimple rings are provided by using $S$-semisimple modules, $S$-projective modules, $S$-injective modules and $S$-split $S$-exact sequences.
In this note, we show that any epimorphism originating at a von Neumann regular ring (not necessary commutative) is a universal localization. As an application, we prove that the Telescope Conjecture holds for the unbounded derived categories of von Neumann regular rings (not necessary commutative).
Flat modules play an important role in the study of the category of modules over rings and in the characterization of some classes of rings. We study the e-flatness for semimodules introduced by the first author using his new notion of exact sequences of semimodules and its relationships with other notions of flatness for semimodules over semirings. We also prove that a subtractive semiring over which every right (left) semimodule is e-flat is a von Neumann regular semiring.
We survey recent progress on the realization problem for von Neumann regular rings, which asks whether every countable conical refinement monoid can be realized as the monoid of isoclasses of finitely generated projective right $R$-modules over a von Neumann regular ring $R$.
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $S$ a multiplicative subset of $R$. In this paper, we introduce and study the notions of $S$-pure $S$-exact sequences and $S$-absolutely pure modules which extend the classical notions of pure exact sequences and absolutely pure modules. And then we characterize $S$-von Neumann regular rings and uniformly $S$-Noetherian rings using $S$-absolutely pure modules.
