Abstract
A right FPF ring is one over which every finitely generated faithful right module is a generator. The main purpose of the article is to givp the following cnaracterization of certain right FPF rings. TheoremLet R be semiprime and right semihereditary. Then R is right FPF iff (1) the right maximal ring of quotients Qr (R) = Q coincides with the left and right classical rings of quotients and is self-injective regular of bounded index, (ii) R and Q have the same central idem-potents, (iii) if I is an ideal of R generated by a maximal ideal of the boolean algebra of central idempotent s5 R/I is such that each non-zero finitely generated right ideal is a generator (hence prime), and (iv) R is such that every essential right ideal contains an ideal which is essential as a right ideal In case that R is semiprime and module finite over its centre C, then the above can be used to show that R is FPF (both sides) if and only if it is a semi-hereditary maximal C-order in a self-injective regular ring (of finite ind...
