In this paper, we introduce the concept of (m, n)-ideals in a non-associative ordered structure, which is called an ordered Abel-Grassmann's groupoid, by generalizing the concept of (m, n)-ideals in an ordered semigroup [14]. We also study the (m, n)-regular class of an ordered AG-groupoid in terms of (m, n)-ideals.

Modules which satisfy the converse of Schur's lemma have been studied by many authors. In [6], R. Ware proved that a projective module P over a semiprime ring R is irreducible if and only if En $d_{R}$(P) is a division ring. Also, Y. Hirano and J.K. Park proved that a torsionless module M over a semiprime ring R is irreducible if and only if En $d_{R}$(M) is a division ring. In case R is a commutative ring, we obtain the following: An R-module M is irreducible if and only if En $d_{R}$(M) is a division ring and M is a multiplication R-module. Throughout this paper, R is commutative ring with identity and all modules are unital left R-modules. Let R be a commutative ring with identity and let M be an R-module. Then M is called a multiplication module if for each submodule N of M, there exists and ideal I of R such that N=IM. Cyclic R-modules are multiplication modules. In particular, irreducible R-modules are multiplication modules.dules.

All rings considered here are commutative rings with identity and all modules considered here are unital left modules. A submodule N of an R-module M is said to be extended to M if $N=aM$ for some ideal a of R and it is said to be fully invariant if ${\varphi}(L){\subseteq}L$ for every ${\varphi}{\in}End(M)$. An R-module M is called a [resp., fully invariant] multiplication module if every [resp., fully invariant] submodule is extended to M. The class of fully invariant multiplication modules is bigger than the class of multiplication modules. We deal with prime submodules and associated prime submodules of fully invariant multiplication modules. In particular, when M is a nonzero faithful multiplication module over a Noetherian ring, we characterize the zero-divisors of M in terms of the associated prime submodules, and we show that the set Aps(M) of associated prime submodules of M determines the set $Zdv_M(M)$ of zero-dvisors of M and the support Supp(M) of M.
