Exercise 12, § 2

Algebra, II, p. 185

(a) For a product ∏λ∈LEλ\prod_{\lambda \in L} E_\lambda of AA-modules to be injective (Exercise 11), it is necessary and sufficient that each of the EλE_\lambda be injective. (b) Let KK be a commutative field, LL an infinite set, AA the product ring KLK^L. Now prove that AsA_s is an injective AA-module (use (a)), but that the ideal aa of AA, direct sum of the factors of KLK^L (canonically identified with ideals of AA), is not an injective AA-module.
