Throughout this paper S will denote a given monoid and R a given ring with unity. A set A is a right S-system if there is a map φ:A × SA satisfying

and

for any element a of A and any elements s, t of S. For φ(a, s) we write as and we refer to right S-systems simply as S-systems. One has the obvious definitions of an S-subsystem, an S-homomorphism and a congruence on an S-system. The reader ispresumed to be familiar with the basic definitions concerning right R-modules over R. As with S-systems we will refer to right R-modules just as R-modules.
