Abstract

Let $R$ be an associative ring and let $M$ be a left $R$-module. Let $Spec_{R}(M)$ be the collection of all prime submodules of  $M$ (equipped with classical Zariski topology). There is a conjecture  which says that every irreducible closed subset of $Spec_{R}(M)$ has a generic point. In this article we give an affirmative answer to this conjecture and show that if $M$ has a Noetherian spectrum, then $Spec_{R}(M)$ is a spectral space.
