Abstract
In this paper, we introduce the notion of \(\chi \)-pure exact sequence. An exact sequence \(0\longrightarrow A\longrightarrow B\longrightarrow C\longrightarrow 0\) is said to be \(\chi \)-pure-exact if \(0\longrightarrow A\bigotimes M\longrightarrow B\bigotimes M\longrightarrow C\bigotimes M\longrightarrow 0\) is again an exact sequence, where A, B, C are right R-modules and \(M\simeq R/I\) is a left R-module for \(I\in \chi \), where \(\chi \) denotes the collection of left ideals of R. In this paper, we establish several equivalent conditions for a pure exact sequence to be \(\chi \)-pure exact. We further define a \(\chi \)-pure injective module and study the topological aspects of this module and introduce a condition under which a \(\chi \)-pure injective module coincides with an algebraically compact module.
