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}…
Given a stable semistar operation of finite type $\star$ on an integral domain $D$, we show that it is possible to define in a canonical way a stable semistar operation of finite type $\star[X]$ on the polynomial ring $D[X]$, such that, if…
Given an integral domain $D$ with quotient field $\mathcal{Q}(D)$, the reciprocal complement of $D$ is the subring $R(D)$ of $\mathcal{Q}(D)$ whose elements are all the sums $\frac{1}{d_1}+\ldots+\frac{1}{d_n} $ for $d_1, \ldots, d_n$…
For a finite-type star operation $\star$ on a domain $R$, we say that $R$ is $\star$-super potent if each maximal $\star$-ideal of $R$ contains a finitely generated ideal $I$ such that (1) $I$ is contained in no other maximal $\star$-ideal…
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 $n\geq 2$…
It is well-known that an integrally closed domain $D$ can be express as the intersection of its valuation overrings but, if $D$ is not a Pr\"{u}fer domain, the most of valuation overrings of $D$ cannot be seen as localizations of $D$. The…
An integral domain $D$ is called an SP-domain if every ideal is a product of radical ideals. Such domains are always almost Dedekind domains, but not every almost Dedekind domain is an SP-domain. The SP-rank of $D$ provides a natural…
Given a certain factorization property of a ring $R$, we can ask if this property extends to the polynomial ring over $R$ or vice versa. For example, it is well known that $R$ is a unique factorization domain if and only if $R[X]$ is a…
$\DeclareMathOperator{\IntR}{Int{}^\text{R}}$$\DeclareMathOperator{\Int}{Int}$Let $D$ be a domain. Park determined the necessary and sufficient conditions for which the ring of integer-valued polynomials $\Int(D)$ is a globalized…
A semigroup $S$ is called an equational domain (e.d.) if any finite union of algebraic sets over $S$ is algebraic. For a semigroup $S$ with a finite ideal we find the necessary and sufficient conditions to be an e.d.
An integral domain is atomic if every nonzero nonunit factors into irreducibles. Let $R$ be an integral domain. We say that $R$ is a bounded factorization domain if it is atomic and for every nonzero nonunit $x \in R$, there is a positive…
Let $D$ be an integral domain and $X$ an indeterminate over $D$. It is well known that (a) $D$ is quasi-Pr\"ufer (i.e, its integral closure is a Pr\"ufer domain) if and only if each upper to zero $Q$ in $D[X] $ contains a polynomial $g \in…
Let $S(D)$ represent a set of proper nonzero ideals $I(D)$ (resp., $t$ -ideals $I_{t}(D)$) of an integral domain $D\neq qf(D)$ and let $P$ be a valid property of ideals of $D.$ We say $S(D)$ meets $P$ (denoted $ S(D)\vartriangleleft P)$ if…
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…
A ring is *unit-additive* if a sum of units is always either a unit or nilpotent. For example, $k[X]$ and $k[X]/(X^2)$ are unit-additive, but $\mathbb Z$ is not. We prove a wide-ranging theorem about unit-additivity in semigroup rings,…
In a Dedekind domain $D$, every non-zero proper ideal $A$ factors as a product $A=P_1^{t_1}\cdots P_k^{t_k}$ of powers of distinct prime ideals $P_i$. For a Dedekind domain $D$, the $D$-modules $D/P_i^{t_i}$ are uniserial. We extend this…
Using polynomial evaluation, we give some useful criteria to answer questions about divisibility of polynomials. This allows us to develop interesting results concerning the prime elements in the domain of coefficients. In particular, it is…
Let $V$ be a rank one valuation domain with quotient field $K$. We characterize the subsets $S$ of $V$ for which the ring of integer-valued polynomials ${\rm Int}(S,V)=\{f\in K[X] \mid f(S)\subseteq V\}$ is a Pr\"ufer domain. The…
Let $D$ be a Dedekind domain with infinitely many maximal ideals, all of finite index, and $K$ its quotient field. Let $\operatorname{Int}(D) = \{f\in K[x] \mid f(D) \subseteq D\}$ be the ring of integer-valued polynomials on $D$. Given any…
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…
