Operations on Submodules with the Multiplicative and Quotient Properties

Inspired by the works of Petro, Epstein, Vassilev, and Morre, this thesis aims to study the generalized definitions of the semiprime operation, weakly prime operation, and standard closure operation on rings, that is, the multiplicative operation, weakly multiplicative operation, and standardly multiplicative operation on submodules. Then, we will use Matlis duality to induce the dual notions of these definitions on submodules of Matlis-dualizable Artinian modules. In order to understand the dual notion of the standardly multiplicative operation, that is, the standardly quotient operation, we will classify the operations on the injective hull of residue field of the ring K[[x,y]]/(xy) which are standardly quotient, idempotent, and order-preserving.
