On skew Armendariz and skew quasi-Armendariz modules

Let $alpha$ be an endomorphism and $delta$ an $alpha$-derivationof a ring $R$. In this paper we study the relationship between an$R$-module $M_R$ and the general polynomial module $M[x]$ over theskew polynomial ring $R[x;alpha,delta]$. We introduce the notionsof skew-Armendariz modules and skew quasi-Armendariz modules whichare generalizations of $alpha$-Armendariz modules and extend theclasses of non-reduced skew-Armendariz modules. An equivalentcharacterization of an $alpha$-skew Armendariz module is given.Some properties of this generalization are established, andconnections of properties of a skew-Armendariz module $M_R$ withthose of $M[x]_{R[x;alpha,delta]}$ are investigated. As aconsequence we extend and unify several known results related toArmendariz modules.
