Abstract

This paper is concerned with S-comultiplication modules which are a generalization of comultiplication modules.
In section 2, we introduce the S-small and S-essential submodules of a unitary $R$-module $M$ over a commutative ring $R$ with $1\neq 0$ such that S is a multiplicatively closed subset of $R$. We prove that if $M$ is a faithful S-strong comultiplication $R$-module and $N\ll ^{S}M$, then there exist an ideal $I\leq ^{S}_{e}R$ and an $t\in S$ such that $t(0 :_{M}I)\leq N\leq (0 :_{M}I)$. The converse is true if $S\subseteq {\rm U}(R)$ such that ${\rm U}(R)$ is the set of all units of $R$. Also, we prove that if $M$ is a torsion-free S-strong comultiplication module, then $N\leq ^{S}_{e} M$ if and only if there exist an ideal $I\ll ^{S}R$ and an $s\in S$ such that $s(0 :_{M} I)\leq N\leq (0 :_{M} I)$. In section 3, we introduce the concept of S-quasi-copure submodule $N$ of an $R$-module $M$ and investigate some results related to this class of submodules.
