Department of Mathematics, Southeast University, Jiangsu 210096, China) (E-mail: sxmsgj@) Abstract In this paper, let m, n be two fixed positive integers and M be a right R-module, we define (m, n)-M-flat modules and (m,n)-coherent modules. A right R-module F is called (m, n)- M-flat if every homomorphism from an (n, m)-presented right R-module into F factors through a module in addM . A left S-module M is called an (m, n)-coherent module if MR is finitely presented, and for any (n, m)-presented right R-module K, Hom(K, M ) is a finitely generated left S-module, where S = End(MR). We mainly characterize (m, n)-coherent modules in terms of preenvelopes (which are monomorphism or epimorphism) of modules. Some properties of (m,n)-coherent rings and coherent rings are obtained as corollaries. Keywords (m, n)-M-flat module; (m, n)-coherent module; (m, n)-M-flat preenvelope.

Introduction Throughout this paper, R denotes an associative ring with identity and all modules are unitary. For a right R-module A, E (A) denotes the injective envelope of A and i : A → E (A) denotes the inclusion map. Given a right R-module M , M I stands for the direct product of copies of M indexe
