The fundamental theorem of abelian groups states that any finitely generated abelian group is a direct sum of cyclic groups. This theorem plays a fundamental role in the structure theory of abelian groups. It has fascinated many algebraists to look at this theorem from different points of view:- (a)To find suitable generalizations of this theorem for modules over certain classes of rings, e.g. Dedekind domain, hereditary noetherian prime rings, valuation rings etc.(b)To create suitable versions of this theorem in some module categories and use such versions to develop the structure theory of such module categories. For example, torsion abelian group-like modules, modules with finitely generated submodules direct sums of multiplication modules.(c)To find those rings for which certain versions of the fundamental theorem of abelian groups hold. For example rings over which all finitely generated modules are direct sums of cyclic modules.(d)To examine the structure of certain classes of abelian groups and to try to find modules with similar structures.(e)To find roles of answers to some of above types of questions in the general theory of modules.
