Abstract

The main purposes of this paper are to investigate ℤ-injective rings with the representation extension property and its dual, to give a necessary and sufficient condition for a ℤ-injective ring to be an amalgamation base in the class of all rings and to determine structure of ℤ-injective Noetherian rings which are amalgamation bases. Further, in the class of all commutative rings, it is shown that a commutative ring has the representation extension property, if, and only if, it is an amalgamation base.
