Prüfer conditions in the Nagata ring and the Serre’s conjecture ring

Abstract

ABSTRACTThe Nagata ring R(X) and the Serre’s conjecture ring R⟨X⟩ are two localizations of the polynomial ring R[X] at the polynomials of unit content and at the monic polynomials, respectively. In this paper, we contribute to the study of Prüfer conditions in R(X) and R⟨X⟩. In particular, we solve the four open questions posed by Glaz and Schwarz in Section 8 of their survey paper [38] related to the transfer of Prüfer conditions to these two constructions.
