Regarding non-unique factorization of integer-valued polynomials over a discrete valuation domain $(R,M)$ with finite residue field, it is known that there exist absolutely irreducible elements, that is, irreducible elements all of whose…

We study the question up to which power an irreducible integer-valued polynomial that is not absolutely irreducible can factor uniquely. For example, for integer-valued polynomials over principal ideal domains with square-free denominator,…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. An element $r \in R$ is said to be absolutely irreducible in $R$ if for all natural numbers $n>1$, $r^n$ has essentially only one factorization namely $r^n = r \cdots r$. If $r \in R$ is…

Let $S \subset R$ be an arbitrary subset of a unique factorization domain $R$ and $\K$ be the field of fractions of $R$. The ring of integer-valued polynomials over $S$ is the set $\mathrm{Int}(S,R)= \{ f \in \mathbb{K}[x]: f(a) \in R\…

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…

In this paper we investigate the factorization behaviour of the binomial polynomials $\binom{x}{n} = \frac{x(x-1)\cdots (x-n+1)}{n!}$ and their powers in the ring of integer-valued polynomials $\operatorname{Int}(\mathbb{Z})$. While it is…

Let $\S $ be an arbitrary subset of $R^n$ where $R$ is a domain with the field of fractions $\K$. Denote the ring of polynomials in $n$ variables over $\K$ by $\K[\x].$ The ring of integer-valued polynomials over $\S,$ denoted by…

An irreducible element of a commutative ring is absolutely irreducible if no power of it has more than one (essentially different) factorization into irreducibles. In the case of the ring $\text{Int}(D)=\{f\in K[x]\mid f(D)\subseteq D\}$,…

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…

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…

The ring of integer-valued polynomials over a given subset $S$ of $\Z$ (or $ \mathrm{Int}(S,\Z ))$ is defined as the set of polynomials in $\Q[x]$ which maps $S$ to $\Z$. In factorization theory, it is crucial to check the irreducibility of…

Let $V$ be a valuation ring of a global field $K$. We show that for all positive integers $k$ and $1 < n_1 \leq \ldots \leq n_k$ there exists an integer-valued polynomial on $V$, that is, an element of $\text{Int}(V) = \{ f \in K[X] \mid…

Let $D$ be a principal ideal domain and $R(D) = \{\begin{pmatrix} a & b 0 & a \end{pmatrix} \mid a, b \in D\}$ be its self-idealization. It is known that $R(D)$ is a commutative noetherian ring with identity, and hence $R(D)$ is atomic…

A computable ring is a ring equipped with mechanical procedure to add and multiply elements. In most natural computable integral domains, there is a computational procedure to determine if a given element is prime/irreducible. However,…

In this paper, we show that it is possible for a commutative ring with identity to be non-atomic (that is, there exist non-zero nonunits that cannot be factored into irreducibles) and yet have a strongly atomic polynomial extension. In…

We survey results on factorizations of non zero-divisors into atoms (irreducible elements) in noncommutative rings. The point of view in this survey is motivated by the commutative theory of non-unique factorizations. Topics covered include…

In this article, we consider polynomials of the form $f(x)=a_0+a_{n_1}x^{n_1}+a_{n_2}x^{n_2}+\dots+a_{n_r}x^{n_r}\in \mathbb{Z}[x],$ where $|a_0|\ge |a_{n_1}|+\dots+|a_{n_r}|,$ $|a_0|$ is a prime power and $|a_0|\nmid |a_{n_1}a_{n_r}|$. We…
