Faithful torsion rings and modules II

What is it about?

This work continued the study begun in the first paper. Given an R module M, if we postulate that the annihilator of M is nontrivial, the annihilator of each element is nontrivial. If instead we postulate that the annihilator of a single element is trivial, then the annihilator of M is trivial as well. In this article the authors explored the balance point of these two conditions: the annihilator of each element is nontrivial, and yet the annihilator of the entire module is trivial. The existence and minimum cardinalities of generating sets for such modules are considered.
