TITLE: Is it true that Tensor product of injective modules is injective?
QUESTION [8 upvotes]: Is it true that if $M$, $N$ are injective modules over a commutative ring $R$ (with identity) then $M\otimes_R N$ is also injective ?

REPLY [9 votes]: It holds when $R$ is a PID (here injective $\Leftrightarrow$ divisible). It is not true in general. The following papers study and characterize this property of $R$ that tensor products of injectives are injective.
