Abstract

Let R be a commutative ring with identity. Let N and K be two submodules of a multiplication R-module M. Then
N=IM and K=JM for some ideals I and J of R. The product of N and K denoted by NK is defined by NK=IJM. In
this paper we characterize some particular cases of multiplication modules by using the product of submodules.
