Gr\"obner bases are a fundamental tool when studying ideals in multivariate polynomial rings. More recently there has been a growing interest in transferring techniques from the field case to other coefficient rings, most notably Euclidean…
We describe the prime ideals and, in particular, the maximal ideals in products $R = \prod D_\lambda$ of families $(D_\lambda)_{\lambda \in \Lambda}$ of commutative rings. We show that every maximal ideal is induced by an ultrafilter on the…
We prove the following sharp upper bound for the gradient of the Neumann semigroup $P_t$ on a $d$-dimensional compact domain $\OO$ with boundary either $C^2$-smooth or convex: $$\|\nn P_t\|_{1\to \infty}\le \ff{c}{t^{(d+1)/2}},\ \ t>0,$$…
In the first section of this paper, we introduce the notions of fractional and invertible ideals of semirings and characterize invertible ideals of a semidomain. In section two, we define Pr\"{u}fer semirings and characterize them in terms…
Idealization of a module $K$ over a commutative ring $S$ produces a ring having $K$ as an ideal, all of whose elements are nilpotent. We develop a method that under suitable field-theoretic conditions produces from an $S$-module $K$ and…
Let $D$ be a domain and $M$ a maximal ideal of $D$. The ring of integer-valued polynomials on a subset $E$ of $D$, as well as more general rings of functions from $E$ to $D$, can be viewed as subrings of the product $D^E=\prod_{e\in E}D$.…
Let $F$ be a field, let $D$ be a subring of $F$ and let $Z$ be an irreducible subspace of the space of all valuation rings between $D$ and $F$ that have quotient field $F$. Then $Z$ is a locally ringed space whose ring of global sections is…
Samuel conjectured in 1961 that a (Noetherian) local complete intersection ring that is a UFD in codimension at most three is itself a UFD. It is said that Grothendieck invented local cohomology to prove this fact. Following the philosophy…
We study decompositions of length functions on integral domains as sums of length functions constructed from overrings. We find a standard representation when the integral domain admits a Jaffard family, when it is Noetherian and when it is…
Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{C}^n$ be a bounded pseudoconvex domain. We define the Diederich-Forn{\ae}ss index with respect to a family of functions to be the supremum over the set of all exponents $0<\eta<1$ such that there exists a function…
In 2008 N.~Q.~Chinh and P.~H.~Nam characterized principal ideal domains as integral domains that satisfy the follo\-wing two conditions: (i) they are unique factorization domains, and (ii) all maximal ideals in them are principal. We…
In this paper we consider higher order Schr\"odinger operators $$\mathcal L u=Lu+Vu,$$ where $L$ denotes a fourth order operator and $V\geq 0$ a suitable potential. We initiate our analysis by considering the constant coefficients…
Given a star operation * of finite type, we call a domain R a *-unique representation domain (*-URD) if each *-invertible *-ideal of R can be uniquely expressed as a *-product of pairwise *-comaximal ideals with prime radical. When * is the…
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 $R$ 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…
In this paper we introduce two new generalizations of Krull domains: $\ast$-almost independent rings of Krull type ($\ast$-almost IRKTs) and $\ast$-almost generalized Krull domains ($\ast$-AGKDs), neither of which need be integrally closed.…
We demonstrate a class of local (Noetherian) unique factorization domains (UFDs) that are noncatenary at infinitely many places. In particular, if $A$ is in our class of UFDs, then the prime spectrum of $A$ contains infinitely many disjoint…
In this paper, we completely describe the family of integrally closed Noetherian domains between $\mathbb{Z}[X]$ and $\mathbb{Q}[X]$. We accomplish this result by classifying the Krull domains between these two polynomial rings. To this…
Let $T$ be a complete local ring. We present necessary and sufficient conditions for $T$ to be the completion of a local (Noetherian) unique factorization domain $A$ such that there exist height one prime ideals $\{J_k\}_{k = 1}^{\infty}$…
Let R be a Dedekind domain with global quotient field K. The purpose of this note is to provide a characterization of when a strongly graded R-order with semiprime 1-component is hereditary. This generalizes earlier work by the first author…
