Fractional Ideal - Divisorial Ideal

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:

    The emancipation of today displays itself mainly in cigarettes and shorts. There is even a reaction from the ideal of an intellectual and emancipated womanhood, for which the pioneers toiled and suffered, to be seen in painted lips and nails, and the return of trailing skirts and other absurdities of dress which betoken the slave-woman’s intelligent companionship.
    Sylvia Pankhurst (1882–1960)
