  Abstract:
An R-module M is called weakly co-Hopfian if any injective endomorphism of M is essential. The class of weakly co-Hopfian modules lies properly between the class of co-Hopfian and the class of Dedekind finite modules. Several equivalent conditions are given for a module to be weakly co-Hopfian. Being co-Hopfian, weakly co-Hopfian or Dedekind finite are all equivalent conditions on quasi-injective modules. Some other properties of weakly co-Hopfian modules are also obtained.
