Divisorial Ideal
Let denote the intersection of all principal fractional ideals containing a nonzero fractional ideal I. Equivalently,
where
- (ideal quotient)
If then I is called divisorial. In other words, a divisorial ideal is a nonzero intersection of some nonempty set of fractional principal ideals. If I is divisorial and J is a nonzero fractional ideal, then I : J is divisorial.
An integral domain that satisfies the ascending chain conditions on divisorial ideals is called a Mori domain.

Famous quotes containing the word ideal:
“For most Northerners, Texas is the home of real men. The cowboys, the rednecks, the outspoken self-made right-wing millionaires strike us as either the best or worst examples of American manliness.... The ideal is not an illusion nor is it contemptible, no matter what damage it may have done. Many people who scorn it in conversation want to submit to it in bed. Those who believe machismo reeks of violence alone choose to forget it once stood for honor as well.”
—Edmund White (b. 1940)
