Extract

Let Λ be a commutative ring with an identity element and c an element of Λ which is not a zero divisor Denote by Ω the residue class ring Λ/Λc. If now M is a Λ-module for which c is not a zero divisor, and A is an Ω-module, then a theorem of Rees (2) asserts that, for every non-negative integer n, we have a Λ-isomorphism

This reduction theorem has found a number of useful and interesting applications.
