The problem of classifying the torsion-free abelian groups with commutative endomorphism rings appears as Fuchs’ problems in [4, Problems 46 and 47]. They are far from solved, and the obstacles to a solution appear formidable (see [4; 5]). It is, however, easy to see that the only dualizable abelian group with a commutative endomorphism ring is the infinite cyclic group. (An R-module Miscalled dualizable if HomR(M, R) ≠ 0.) Motivated by this, we study the class of prime rings R which possess a dualizable module M with a commutative endomorphism ring. A characterization of such rings is obtained in § 6, which as would be expected, places stringent restrictions on the ring and the module.Throughout we will write homomorphisms of modules on the side opposite to the scalar action. Rings will not be assumed to contain identity elements unless otherwise indicated.

This paper investigates to which extent a self-small mixed Abelian group G of finite torsion-free rank is determined by the groups Hom (G,C) where C is chosen from a suitable class [Formula: see text] of Abelian groups. We show that G is determined up to quasi-isomorphism if [Formula: see text] is the class of all self-small mixed groups C with r0(C) ≤ r0(G). Several related results are given, and the dual problem of orthogonal classes is investigated.

Let A be an abelian group, let ∧ = End (A), and assume that A is a flat left ∧-module. Then σ = { right ideals I ⊂ ∧ | IA = A} generates a linear topology oil ∧. We prove that Hom(A,·) is an equivalence from the category of those groups B ⊂ An satisfying B = Hom(A, B)A, onto the category of σ-closed submodules of finitely generated free right ∧-modules. Applications classify the right ideal structure of A, and classify torsion-free groups A of finite rank which are (nearly) isomorphic to each A-generated subgroup of finite index in A.

It is shown that the Baer–Kaplansky Theorem can be extended to all abelian groups provided that the rings of endomorphisms of groups are replaced by trusses of endomorphisms of corresponding heaps. That is, every abelian group is determined up to isomorphism by its endomorphism truss and every isomorphism between two endomorphism trusses associated to some abelian groups [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is induced by an isomorphism between [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] and an element from [Formula: see text]. This correspondence is then extended to all modules over a ring by considering heaps of modules. It is proved that the truss of endomorphisms of a heap associated to a module [Formula: see text] determines [Formula: see text] as a module over its endomorphism ring.
