A New Characterization of Half-factorial Krull Monoids
نویسنده
چکیده
Let M be a Krull monoid. Then every element of M may be written as a finite product of irreducible elements. If for every a ∈ M , each two factorizations of a have the same number of irreducible elements, then M is called half-factorial. Using a property of element exponentiation, we provide a new characterization of half-factoriality, valid for all Krull monoids whose class group has torsion-free rank at most one.

Local and global tameness in Krull monoids
Let H be a Krull monoid with finite class group G such that every class contains a prime divisor. Then the global tame degree t(H) equals zero if and only if H is factorial (equivalently, |G| = 1). If |G| > 1, then D(G) ≤ t(H) ≤ 1 + D(G) (
متن کاملOn the Asymptotic Values of Length Functions in Krull and Finitely Generated Commutative Monoids
Let M be a commutative cancellative atomic monoid. We consider the behavior of the asymptotic length functions ̄̀(x) and L̄(x) on M . If M is finitely generated and reduced, then we present an algorithm for the computation of both ̄̀(x) and L̄(x) where x is a nonidentity element of M . We also explore the values that the functions ̄̀(x) and L̄(x) can attain when M is a Krull monoid with torsion diviso...
متن کاملNon-commutative Krull Monoids: a Divisor Theoretic Approach and Their Arithmetic
A (not necessarily commutative) Krull monoid—as introduced by Wauters—is defined as a completely integrally closed monoid satisfying the ascending chain condition on divisorial two-sided ideals. We study the structure of these Krull monoids, both with ideal theoretic and with divisor theoretic methods. Among others we characterize normalizing Krull monoids by divisor theories. Based on these re...
متن کاملDiversity in inside Factorial Monoids
We apply the recently introduced monoid invariant “diversity” to inside factorial monoids. In this context, the diversity of an element counts the number of its different almost primary components. Inside factorial monoids are characterized via diversity and strong homogeneity. A new invariant complementary to diversity, height, is introduced. These two invariants are connected with the well-kn...
متن کاملOn Condition (G-PWP)
Laan in (Ph.D Thesis, Tartu. 1999) introduced the principal weak form of Condition $(P)$ as Condition $(PWP)$ and gave some characterization of monoids by this condition of their acts. In this paper first we introduce Condition (G-PWP), a generalization of Condition $(PWP)$ of acts over monoids and then will give a characterization of monoids when all right acts satisfy this condition. We also ...
