Abstract

A submodule W of V is summand absorbing, if x+y∈W implies x∈W,y∈W for any x,y∈V. Such submodules often appear in modules over (additively) idempotent semirings, particularly in tropical algebra. This paper studies amalgamation and extensions of these submodules, and more generally of upper bound modules.
