Chevalley groups of polynomial rings over Dedekind domains

Chevalley Groups over Commutative Rings

Chevalley Groups over Commutative Rings I. Elementary Calculations

This is the rst in a series of papers dedicated to the structure of Chevalley groups over commutative rings. The goal of this series is to systematically develop methods of calculations in Chevalley groups over rings, based on the use of their minimal modules. As an application we give new direct proofs for normality of the elementary subgroup, description of normal subgroups and similar result...

Dedekind Domains and Rings of Quotients

We study the relation of the ideal class group of a Dedekind domain A to that of As, where S is a multiplicatively closed subset of A. We construct examples of (a) a Dedekind domain with no principal prime ideal and (b) a Dedekind domain which is not the integral closure of a principal ideal domain. We also obtain some qualitative information on the number of non-principal prime ideals in an ar...

Semistar dimension of polynomial rings and Prufer-like domains

Let $D$ be an integral domain and $star$ a semistar operation stable and of finite type on it. We define the semistar dimension (inequality) formula and discover their relations with $star$-universally catenarian domains and $star$-stably strong S-domains. As an application, we give new characterizations of $star$-quasi-Pr"{u}fer domains and UM$t$ domains in terms of dimension inequal...

Projective Modules over Dedekind Domains

In these notes we will first define projective modules and prove some standard properties of those modules. Then we will classify finitely generated projective modules over Dedekind domains Remark 0.1. All rings will be commutative with 1. 1. Projective modules Definition 1.1. Let R be a ring and let M be an R-module. Then M is called projective if for all surjections p : N → N ′ and a map f : ...
