An -module is called absolutely self neat if whenever is a map from a maximal left ideal of , with kernel in the filter is generated by the set of annihilator left ideals of elements in into , then is extendable to a map from into . The concept is analogous to the absolute self purity, while it properly generalizes quasi injectivity and absolute neatness and retains some of their properties. Certain types of rings are characterized using this concept. For example, a ring is left max-hereditary if and only if the homomorphic image of any absolutely neat -module is absolutely self neat, and is semisimple if and only if all -modules are absolutely self neat.

An -module  is extending if every submodule of   is essential in a direct summand of . Following Clark, an -module  is purely extending if every submodule of   is essential in a pure submodule of . It is clear purely extending is generalization of extending modules. Following Birkenmeier and Tercan, an -module     is Goldie extending if, for each submodule      of , there is a direct summand D of such that . In this paper, we introduce and study class of modules which are proper generalization of both the purely extending modules and -extending modules. We call an -module  is purely Goldie extending if, for each , there is a pure submodule P of such that  . Many c

 In this paper, we give a comprehensive study of min (max)-CS modules such as a closed submodule of min-CS module is min-CS. Amongst other results we show that a direct summand of min (max)-CS module is min (max)-CS module. One of interested theorems in this paper is, if R is a nonsingular ring then R is a max-CS ring if and only if R is a min-CS ring.

  In this paper, the concept of contraction mapping on a -metric space is extended with a consideration on local contraction.  As a result, two fixed point theorems were proved for contraction on a closed ball in a complete -metric space.

Let R be a commutative ring with identity and let M be a unitary left R-module. The purpose of this paper is to investigate some new results (up to our knowledge) on the concept of semi-essential submodules which introduced by Ali S. Mijbass and Nada K. Abdullah, and we make simple changes to the definition relate with the zero submodule, so we say that a submodule N of an R-module M is called semi-essential, if whenever N ∩ P = (0), then P = (0) for each prime submodule P of M. Various properties of semi-essential submodules are considered.

     In this paper, we define and study z-small quasi-Dedekind as a generalization of small quasi-Dedekind modules. A submodule  of -module  is called z-small (  if whenever  , then . Also,  is called a z-small quasi-Dedekind module if for all  implies  . We also describe some of their properties and characterizations. Finally, some examples are given.

New types of modules named Fully Small Dual Stable Modules and Principally Small Dual Stable are studied and investigated. Both concepts are generalizations of Fully Dual Stable Modules and Principally Dual Stable Modules respectively. Our new concepts coincide when the module is Small Quasi-Projective, and by considering other kind of conditions. Characterizations and relations of these concepts and the concept of Small Duo Modules are investigated, where every fully small dual stable R-module M is small duo and the same for principally small dual stable.
