Let $D$ be an integral domain. A nonzero nonunit $a$ of $D$ is called a valuation element if there is a valuation overring $V$ of $D$ such that $aV\cap D=aD$. We say that $D$ is a valuation factorization domain (VFD) if each nonzero nonunit…

An integral domain $D$ is a {\em valuation ideal factorization domain} (VIFD) if each nonzero principal ideal of $D$ can be written as a finite product of valuation ideals. Clearly, $\pi$-domains are VIFDs. We study the ring-theoretic…

An integral domain $D$ is called a \emph{prime-divisor-finite domain} (PDF-domain) if every nonzero element has only finitely many nonassociate prime divisors. A domain $D$ is said to be a \emph{tightly prime-divisor-finite domain}…

For an integral domain $R$ and a commutative cancellative monoid $M$, the ring consisting of all polynomial expressions with coefficients in $R$ and exponents in $M$ is called the monoid ring of $M$ over $R$. An integral domain is called…

An integral domain $D,$ with quotient field $K,$ is a $v$-domain if for each nonzero finitely generated ideal $A$ of $D$ we have $(AA^{-1})^{-1}=D.$ It is well known that if $D$ is a $v$-domain$,$ then some quotient ring $D_{S}$ of $D$ may…

Let $R$ be an integral domain. For elements $a,b \in R$, let $[a,b]$ denote their greatest common divisor, if it exists. We say that $R$ has the Z-property if whenever $a,b,c,d$ and $e$ are nonzero nonunits of $R$ such that $abc=de$, then…

Following the terminology introduced by Arnold and Sheldon back in 1975, we say that an integral domain $D$ is a GL-domain if the product of any two primitive polynomials over $D$ is again a primitive polynomial. In this paper, we study the…

Let $F$ be a field, $p$ a prime number, $X$ an indeterminate over $F$, $D_n =F[X^{\frac{1}{p^n}}, X^{-\frac{1}{p^n}}]$ for each integer $n \geq 0$ and $D = \bigcup\limits_{n\in\mathbb{N}_0}D_n.$ Then $D$ is a one-dimensional B{\'e}zout…

The *reciprocal complement* $R(D)$ of an integral domain $D$ is the subring of its fraction field generated by the reciprocals of its nonzero elements. Many properties of $R(D)$ are determined when $D$ is a polynomial ring in $n\geq 2$…

Let $D$ be an integrally closed domain with quotient field $K$ and $A$ a torsion-free $D$-algebra that is finitely generated as a $D$-module and such that $A\cap K=D$. We give a complete classification of those $D$ and $A$ for which the…

A finite semifield $D$ is a finite nonassociative ring with identity such that the set $D^*=D\setminus\{0\}$ is closed under the product. In this paper we obtain a computer-assisted description of all 64-element finite semifields, which…

In this paper, we address various aspects of divisibility by irreducibles in rings consisting of integer-valued polynomials. An integral domain is called atomic if every nonzero nonunit factors into irreducibles. Atomic domains that do not…

A subset $S$ of an integral domain $R$ is called a semidomain if the pairs $(S,+)$ and $(S, \cdot)$ are semigroups with identities; additionally, we say that $S$ is additively reduced provided that $S$ contains no additive inverses. Given…
