An invariant for modules over a discrete valuation ring

Abstract: Warfield has recently defined a new class of invariants for mixed modules over a discrete valuation ring. These invariants, along with the Ulm invariants, enable Warfield to prove an analogue to Ulm's theorem. Warfield's definition contains two shortcomings. The invariants are defined for a limited class of modules. Moreover it is difficult to show that the invariants are well defined. This paper defines a new invariant which coincides with that of Warfield, and overcomes both difficulties.

“…He used these invariants to prove a generalized version of Ulm's theorem; namely, two Warfield groups are isomorphic if and only if they have the same Ulm and Warfield invariants. Stanton [6] later extended these invariants to all groups. An alternate development of Warfield's theory was given by Hunter, Richman and Walker in [3].…”
