Artinian ring and injective endomorphism which is not surjective

356 Views Asked by At

I have tried to find a left module $M$ over an artinian ring $R$ with an injective endomorphism that is not an automorphism, so is there any suggestions, please?

Take $R=F$ to be a field, and consider $M=\prod_{i\in \mathbb N}F$.

You can inject $M$ onto the subspace of $M$ whose even coordinates are $0$, but this map is not surjective.
