On a Condition of J. Ohm for Integral Domains1
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 November 2018
Extract
This paper originated mainly from results presented in a paper by J. Ohm (13), and, to a lesser degree, from results of Gilmer in (3). Ohm's paper is concerned with the validity of the equation (x, y)n = (xn, yn) for each pair of elements x, y of an integral domain D with identity. If D is a Prüfer domain, the above equation is valid for all x, y ϵ D (7, p. 244). Butts and Smith have shown (2) that if (x, y)2 = (x2, y2) for all x, y of the integrally closed domain D, then D is a Priifer domain.
