Let A be an integral domain and K its quotient field. A is called a Krull domain if there is a set {Vα} of rank one discrete valuation rings such that A = ∩αVα and such that each non-zero element of A is a non-unit in only finitely many of the Vα. The structure of these rings was first investigated by Krull, who called them endliche discrete Hauptordungen (4 or 5, p. 104).
