We show that every finite poset is isomorphic to a saturated subset of the spectrum of a Noetherian unique factorization domain. In addition, we show that every finite poset is isomorphic to a saturated subset of the spectrum of a…

With the growing evolution of the theory of non-unique factorization in integral domains and monoids, the study of several variations to the classical unique factorization domain (or UFD) property have become popular in the literature.…

It is proved that if $D$ is a $UFD$ and $R$ is a $D$-algebra, such that $U(R)\cap D\neq U(D)$, then $R$ has a maximal subring. In particular, if $R$ is a ring which either contains a unit $x$ which is not algebraic over the prime subring of…

Let $T$ be a complete equicharacteristic local (Noetherian) UFD of dimension $3$ or greater. Assuming that $|T| = |T/m|$, where $m$ is the maximal ideal of $T$, we construct a local UFD $A$ whose completion is $T$ and whose formal fibers at…

Using an old example of Nagata, we construct a Noetherian ring of prime characteristic p, whose Frobenius morphism is locally finite, but not finite.

We study different form of boundness for ideals of almost Dedekind domains, generalizing the notions of critical ideals, radical factorization, and SP-domains. We show that every almost Dedekind domain has at least one noncritical maximal…

We consider properties of extensions of Krull domains such as flatness that involve behavior of extensions and contractions of prime ideals. Let (R,m) be an excellent normal local domain with field of fractions K, let y be a nonzero element…

A semidomain is a subsemiring of an integral domain. Within this class, a unique factorization semidomain (UFS) is characterized by the property that every nonzero, nonunit element can be factored into a product of finitely many prime…

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…

Let $R$ be an infinite Dedekind domain with at most finitely many units, and let $K$ denote its field of fractions. We prove the following statement. If $L/K$ is a finite Galois extension of fields and $\mathcal{O}$ is the integral closure…

The primary purpose of this paper is give a classification scheme for the nonzero primes of a Pr\"ufer domain based on five properties. A prime $P$ of a Pr\"ufer domain $R$ could be sharp or not sharp, antesharp or not, divisorial or not,…

Fix any field $K$ of characteristic $p$ such that $[K:K^p]$ is finite. We discuss excellence for Noetherian domains whose fraction field is $K$, showing for example, that $R$ is excellent if and only if the Frobenius map is finite on $R$.…

We prove the existence of nontrivial unbounded exceptional domains in the Euclidean space $\R^N$, $N\geq4$. These domains arise as perturbations of complements of straight cylinders in $\R^N$, and by definition they support a positive…

It has been a well-known fact since Euclid's time that there exist infinitely many rational primes. Two natural questions arise: In which other rings, sufficiently similar to the integers, are there infinitely many irreducible elements? Is…

We prove a general theorem showing that iterated skew polynomial extensions of the type which fit the conditions needed by Cauchon's deleting derivations theory and by the Goodearl-Letzter stratification theory are unique factorisation…

Let $\mathbb{N} \mathcal{A}$ be the monoid generated by $\mathcal{A} = {\mathbf{a}_1, ..., \mathbf{a}_n} \subseteq \mathbb{Z}^d.$ We introduce the homogeneous catenary degree of $\mathbb{N} \mathcal{A}$ as the smallest $N \in \mathbb N$…

We construct several new examples of homogeneous domains in complex space that do not have bounded realisations. They are equivalent to tubes over affinely homogeneous domains in real space and have a real-analytic everywhere Levi…

We construct examples of noetherian three-dimensional local geometrically normal domains of prime characteristic which are $F$-injective but not $F$-full. Along the way, we find examples of two-dimensional local geometrically normal domains…

Local Noetherian domains arising as local rings of points of varieties or in the context of algebraic number theory are analytically unramified, meaning their completions have no nontrivial nilpotent elements. However, looking elsewhere,…

In this paper we exhibit an example of a three-dimensional regular local domain (A, n) having a height-two prime ideal P with the property that the extension PA^ of P to the n-adic completion A^ of A is not integrally closed. We use a…
