Ring extensions invariant under group action

Commutative Algebra 2014-05-08 v2

Abstract

Let GG be a subgroup of the automorphism group of a commutative ring with identity TT. Let RR be a subring of TT such that RR is invariant under the action by GG. We show RGTGR^G\subset T^G is a minimal ring extension whenever RTR\subset T is a minimal extension under various assumptions. Of the two types of minimal ring extensions, integral and integrally closed, both of these properties are passed from RTR\subset T to RGTGR^G\subset T^G. An integrally closed minimal ring extension is a flat epimorphic extension as well as a normal pair. We show each of these properties also pass from RTR\subset T to RGTGR^G\subseteq T^G under certain group action.
