چکیده

First order conditions are given which are necessary for a commutative regular ring to have a prime integrally closed extension. If the ring is countable these conditions are also sufficient. In [8] an example was given of a commutative regular ring with no prime model extension to a commutative integrally closed regular ring. In this paper we give (in §2) first order conditions which are necessary for a commutative regular ring, R, to have a prime extension to an integrally closed regular ring. In the case that R is countable these conditions are also sufficient (§3). They are, however, not sufficient in the case that R is uncountable (§4). In [1] and [5] (see also [6] and [9]) it was shown that the theory K — of integrally closed commutative regular rings without minimal (4 0) idempotents is the model completion of the theory of commutative regular rings, KCR. In §5 we show that a model of KCR has a prime extension to a model of K-— (the theory of integrally closed commutative regular rings) if and only if it has a prime extension to a model of K—-. 1. Preliminaries. A commutative ring R with unit is called regular (in the sense of von Neumann) if R satisfies Vx3y (x2y = x). BR is the Boolean algebra of idempotents of R. The operations of BR ate e. U e. = e. + e. e.e, and e.ne, = eie2' ^r ls trie maximal ideal space of R. It is well known that if R is regular and commutative then SR is the Stone space of BR. In a natural way R is a ring of functions on SR. (R 3 a —» a(-) defined by a(s) = a + s in R/s, foi s e SR any maximal ideal of R. If R is regular then R/s is a field.) It will be intuitively helpful to think of commutative regular rings as rings of functions in this way. If R is a commutative regular Received by the editors July 14, 1974.

AN INTEGRAL DEPENDENCE IN MODULES OVER COMMUTATIVE RINGS

In this paper, we give a generalization of the integral dependence from rings to modules. We study the stability of the integral closure with respect to various module theoretic constructions. Moreover, we introduce the notion of integral extension of a module and prove the Lying over, Going up and Going down theorems for modules.

Extensions of Commutative Rings in Subsystems of Second Order Arithmetic

We prove that the existence of the integral closure of a countable commutative ring R in a countable commutative ring S is equivalent to Arithmetical Comprehension (over RCA0). We also show that i) the Lying Over ii) the Going Up theorem for integral extensions of countable commutative rings and iii) the Going Down theorem for integral extensions of countable domains R ⊂ S, with R normal, are p...

Oka and Ako Ideal Families in Commutative Rings

In our earlier study [LR] of prime ideal principles in commutative rings, we have introduced the notion of Oka and Ako families of ideals, along with their “strong analogues”. The logical hierarchy between these ideal families (and the classically well-known monoidal families of ideals) was partly worked out in [LR] over general commutative rings. In the present paper, we amplify this study by ...

Strong F-regularity in Images of Regular Rings

We characterize strong F-regularity, a property associated with tight closure, in a large class of rings. A special case of our results is a workable criterion in complete intersection rings. Tight closure is a recently introduced operation linked to a variety of results in commutative algebra. Among the major results achieved with its use are a generalization of the Direct Summand Conjecture f...

Well-centered Overrings of a Commutative Ring in Pullbacks and Trivial Extensions

Let R be a commutative ring with identity and T (R) its total quotient ring. We extend the notion of well-centered overring of an integral domain to an arbitrary commutative ring and we investigate the transfer of this property to different extensions of commutative rings in both integral and non-integral cases. Namely in pullbacks and trivial extensions. Our aim is to provide new classes of co...
