Interval Rings

Commutative Algebra 2026-07-26 v1

Abstract

Interval rings comprise a class of one-dimensional integrally closed local integral domains which are overrings of a two-dimensional regular local ring. We construct them by intersecting carefully chosen valuation rings and prove that they have various nice properties. Our interest in these rings is that they represent a major stepping stone toward classifying all integrally closed overrings of a two-dimensional regular local ring.
