    Cancellation properties in ideal systems: a classification of e.a.b. semistar operations

    No full text
    We give a classification of e.a.b. semistar (and star) operations by defining four different (successively smaller) distinguished classes. Then, using a standard notion of equivalence of semistar (and star) operations to partition the collection of all e.a.b. semistar (or star) operations, we show that there is exactly one operation of finite type in each equivalence class and that this operation has a range of nice properties. We give examples to demonstrate that the four classes of e.a.b. semistar (or star) operations we defined can all be distinct. In particular, we solve the open problem of showing that a.b. is really a stronger condition than e.a.b

    We introduce an analogue of the Kronecker function ring construction in the ultrapower setting, and study when it gives a Bézout domain

    The patch topology and the ultrafilter topology on the prime spectrum of a commutative ring

    No full text
    Let R be a commutative ring and let Spec R denote the collection of prime ideals of R. We define a topology on Spec R by using ultrafilters and demonstrate that this topology is identical to the well-known patch or constructible topology. The proof is accomplished by use of a von Neumann regular ring canonically associated with R
