The purpose of this work is threefold. First, we explore some relationships between retractability and some lattices of classes of modules. Secondly, we weaken the hypothesis of a result of Ohtake characterizing rings over which all radicals are left exact. In the last section of this work, we introduce a binary relation between modules that produce a Galois connection between the lattice of natural classes and the lattice of conatural classes, and we obtain some results about it.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
