Özet
A module M is called stable if it has no nonzero projective direct summand. For a ring R, we study conditions under which R-modules from certain classes decompose as a direct sum of a projective submodule and a stable submodule. Over an arbitrary ring, modules of finite uniform dimension or finite hollow dimension can be decomposed as a direct sum of a projective submodule and a stable submodule. By using the Auslander-Bridger transpose of finitely presented modules, we prove that every finitely presented right R-module over a left semihereditary ring R has such a decomposition. Our main focus is to give examples, where such a decomposition fails. We give some ring examples over which there exists an infinitely generated or finitely generated or finitely presented module where such a decomposition fails. Our main example is a cyclically presented module M over a commutative ring such that M has no such decomposition and M is not projectively equivalent to a stable module.
