Note on U-closed semigroup rings
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 April 2009
Abstract
Let D be an integral domain with quotient field K. If α2 − α ∈ D and α3 − α2 ∈ D imply α ∈ D for all elements α of K, then D is called a u-closed domain. A submonoid S of a torsion-free Abelian group is called a grading monoid. We consider the semigroup ring D[S] of a grading monoid S over a domain D. The main aim of this note is to determine conditions for D[S] to be u-closed. We shall show the following Theorem: D[S] is u-closed if and only if D is u-closed.
