Applications of Groups of Divisibility and a Generalization of Krull Dimension
(North Dakota State University, 2011)
Groups of divisibility have played an important role in commutative algebra for many years. In 1932 Wolfgang Krull showed in [12] that every linearly ordered Abelian group can be realized as the group of divisibility of a ...
Atomicity in Rings with Zero Divisors
(North Dakota State University, 2011)
In this dissertation, we examine atomicity in rings with zero divisions. We begin by examining the relationship between a ring’s level of atomicity and the highest level of irreducibility shared by the ring’s irreducible ...
