Abstract

Let $M$ be an $R$-module and $T$ a fixed submodule of $M$. Then we say that $M$ is a $T$-semisimple module if each submodule of $M$ is a $T$-direct summand of $M$, i.e. for each submodule $N$ of $M$, there exists a submodule $K$ of $M$ such that $M=N+K$ and $N\cap K$ is contained in $T$. We also present the definition of a $T$-simple module in terms of simple modules. It is shown that a module $M$ is $T$-semisimple if and only if $M/T$ is a semisimple module. We prove that any homomorphic image and each submodule of a $T$-semisimple module inherits the property with a suitable submodule. As expected, it is proved that $M$ is $T$-semisimple if and only if $M$ is a sum of $T$-simple modules.
