We study the structure of certain k-modules V over linear spaces W with restrictions neither on the dimensions of V and W nor on the base field F.. . , w jn ]σ ∈ Fvr σ for some rσ ∈ I. We show that if V admits a multiplicative basis then it decomposes as the direct sum V = α Vα of well described k-submodules Vα each one admitting a multiplicative basis. Also the minimality of V is characterized in terms of the multiplicative basis and it is shown that the above direct sum is by means of the family of its minimal k-submodules, admitting each one a multiplicative basis. Finally we study an application of k-modules with a multiplicative basis over an arbitrary n-ary algebra with multiplicative basis.
