A ring R is said to have property (P) if (Z)overbar(M) is a direct summand of M for every R-module M. It is shown that a commutative perfect ring R has (P) if and only if R is semisimple. An example is given to show that this characterization is not true for noncommutative rings. We prove that if R is a commutative ring such that the class {M is an element of Mod-R vertical bar <(Z)overbar >(R)(M) = 0} is closed under factor modules, then R has (P) if and only if the ring R is von Neumann regular.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessvon Neumann regular ringperfect ring(non)cosingular submoduleSome rings for which the cosingular submodule of every module is a direct summandArticle10.3906/mat-1210-152-s2.0-848989659946574Q264938WOS:000338003700004Q4
