Abstract

Let R be a ring and let M be an R-module with \mathbf{S}=End_R(M). A submodule N of M is said to be projection invariant in M (denoted N \unlhd_p M) if eN \subseteq N for all e=e^2 \in \mathbf{S}. We call M \pidual Baer, if for each N \unlhd_p M there exists e^2=e\in \mathbf{S} such that {f\in \mathbf{S}\mid f(M)\subseteq N}= e\mathbf{S}. A characterization of \pi-dual Baer modules is provided. We show that the class of \pi-dual Baer modules lies strictly between the classes of dual Baer modules and quasi-dual Baer modules. It is also shown that in general, the class of \pi-dual Baer modules is neither closed under direct sums nor closed under direct summands. The structure of \pi-dual Baer modules over Dedekind domains is completely determined. We conclude the paper by studying right \pi-dual Baer rings. We call a ring R right \pidual Baer if the right R-module R_R is right \pi-dual Baer. A characterization of this class of rings is provided. We also investigate the transfer between a base ring R and many of its extensions (for example, full matrix rings over R or R[x] or R[[x]]). In addition, we characterize the 2-by-2 generalized triangular right \pi-dual Baer matrix rings.
