An ideal of height at least 2 cannot be contained in a height-one prime.

Key technical step: if x ∈ K is locally regular at every height-one prime and c · x already lies in A, then c · x² also lies in A. Used inductively to bound denominators when proving integrality.

noncomputable def Proposition39.divByMap {A : Type u_1} [CommRing A] {K : Type u_2} [Field K] [Algebra A K] (b : A) :

The A-linear map A → K sending a ↦ a / b, used to realise A[x] ⊆ K as a submodule of a finitely generated A-module when b clears all denominators of A[x].

Instances For

    If x ∈ K lies in the localization of A at every height-one prime, then x is integral over A. This is a key input to Hartogs/normal-domain results.

    For an integrally closed Noetherian domain, the intersection of all height-one localizations inside its fraction field equals A itself.

    An element of the fraction field that lies in every height-one localization of a normal Noetherian domain already lies in the ring itself.

    Proposition 39 (codimension-2 extension): For a normal Noetherian domain, any element of the fraction field that is regular outside a closed subset of codimension ≥ 2 extends globally to a regular function on Spec A.

    Proposition 39 (set-theoretic form): For a normal Noetherian domain A and an ideal of height at least 2, A equals the intersection of all localizations at primes not containing that ideal.
