Maximally Prüfer rings
Title
Maximally Prüfer rings.
Creator
Sharma, Madhav, Klingler, Lee, Florida Atlantic University, Charles E. Schmidt College of Science, Department of Mathematical Sciences
Abstract/Description
In this dissertation, we consider six Prufer-like conditions on acommutative ring R. These conditions form a hierarchy. Being a Prufer ring is not a local property: a Prufer ring may not remain a Prufer ring when localized at a prime or maximal ideal. We introduce a seventh condition based on this fact and extend the hierarchy. All the conditions of the hierarchy become equivalent in the case of a domain, namely a Prufer domain. We also seek the relationship of the hierarchy with strong...

Unique decomposition of direct sums of ideals
Title
Unique decomposition of direct sums of ideals.
Creator
Ay, Basak., Charles E. Schmidt College of Science, Department of Mathematical Sciences
Abstract/Description
We say that a commutative ring R has the unique decomposition into ideals (UDI) property if, for any R-module which decomposes into a finite direct sum of indecomposable ideals, this decomposition is unique up to the order and isomorphism class of the ideals. In a 2001 paper, Goeters and Olberding characterize the UDI property for Noetherian integral domains. In Chapters 1-3 the UDI property for reduced Noetherian rings is characterized. In Chapter 4 it is shown that overrings of one...
Show moreWe say that a commutative ring R has the unique decomposition into ideals (UDI) property if, for any R-module which decomposes into a finite direct sum of indecomposable ideals, this decomposition is unique up to the order and isomorphism class of the ideals. In a 2001 paper, Goeters and Olberding characterize the UDI property for Noetherian integral domains. In Chapters 1-3 the UDI property for reduced Noetherian rings is characterized. In Chapter 4 it is shown that overrings of one-dimensional reduced commutative Noetherian rings with the UDI property have the UDI property, also. In Chapter 5 we show that the UDI property implies the Krull-Schmidt property for direct sums of torsion-free rank one modules for a reduced local commutative Noetherian one-dimensional ring R.

Minimal zero-dimensional extensions
Title
Minimal zero-dimensional extensions.
Creator
Chiorescu, Marcela, Florida Atlantic University, Charles E. Schmidt College of Science, Department of Mathematical Sciences
Abstract/Description
The structure of minimal zero-dimensional extension of rings with Noetherian spectrum in which zero is a primary ideal and with at most one prime ideal of height greater than one is determined. These rings include K[[X,T]] where K is a field and Dedenkind domains, but need not be Noetherian nor integrally closed. We show that for such a ring R there is a one-to-one correspondence between isomorphism classes of minimal zero-dimensional extensions of R and sets M, where the elements of M are...
Show moreThe structure of minimal zero-dimensional extension of rings with Noetherian spectrum in which zero is a primary ideal and with at most one prime ideal of height greater than one is determined. These rings include K[[X,T]] where K is a field and Dedenkind domains, but need not be Noetherian nor integrally closed. We show that for such a ring R there is a one-to-one correspondence between isomorphism classes of minimal zero-dimensional extensions of R and sets M, where the elements of M are ideals of R primary for distinct prime ideals of height greater than zero. A subsidiary result is the classification of minimal zero-dimensional extensions of general ZPI-rings.

study of divisors and algebras on a double cover of the affine plane
Title
A study of divisors and algebras on a double cover of the affine plane.
Creator
Bulj, Djordje., Charles E. Schmidt College of Science, Department of Mathematical Sciences
Abstract/Description
An algebraic surface defined by an equation of the form z2 = (x+a1y) ... (x + any) (x - 1) is studied, from both an algebraic and geometric point of view. It is shown that the surface is rational and contains a singular point which is nonrational. The class group of Weil divisors is computed and the Brauer group of Azumaya algebras is studied. Viewing the surface as a cyclic cover of the affine plane, all of the terms in the cohomology sequence of Chase, Harrison and Roseberg are computed.

Rings of integer-valued polynomials and derivatives
Title
Rings of integer-valued polynomials and derivatives.
Creator
Villanueva, Yuri., Charles E. Schmidt College of Science, Department of Mathematical Sciences
Abstract/Description
For D an integral domain with field of fractions K and E a subset of K, the ring Int (E,D) = {f e K[X]lf (E) C D} of integer-valued polynomials on E has been well studies. In particulare, when E is a finite subset of D, Chapman, Loper, and Smith, as well as Boynton and Klingler, obtained a bound on the number of elements needed to generate a finitely generated ideal of Ing (E, D) in terms of the corresponding bound for D. We obtain analogous results for Int (r) (E, D) - {f e K [X]lf(k) (E) c...

We obtain analogous results for Int (r) (E, D) - {f e K [X]lf(k) (E) c D for all 0 < k < r} , for finite E and fixed integer r > 1. These results rely on the work of Skolem [23] and Brizolis [7], who found ways to characterize ideals of Int (E, D) from the values of their polynomials at points in D. We obtain similar results for E = D in case D is local, Noetherian, one-dimensional, analytically irreducible, with finite residue field.
