Abstract: Every injective module over a noetherian ring is a direct sum of directly indecomposable submodules. The question arises as to whether and in what sense such a decomposition is uniquely determined. This question is answered by the Krull-Remak-Schmidt Theorem. The proof of the Krull-Remak-Schmidt Theorem assumes that the endomorphism rings of the direct summands are local rings. Hence we have, first of all, to introduce local rings and then to state sufficient conditions in order that the endomorphism ring of a directly indecomposable module is local.   References
