Abstract

Let be an endomorphism of an arbitrary ring R with identity. In this note, we concern the relations between polynomial and power series extensions of a reduced module. Among others we prove that a ring R isreduced if and only if every ‡at right R-module is-reduced, and for a module M , M [x] is-reduced if and only if M [x; x 1 ] is-reduced.
