Completions of reduced local rings with prescribed minimal prime ideals

Susan Loepp and Byron Perpetua

Vol. 9 (2016), No. 1, 101–118
Abstract

Let T be a complete local ring of Krull dimension at least one, and let C1,C2,,Cm each be countable sets of prime ideals of T. We find necessary and sufficient conditions for T to be the completion of a reduced local ring A such that A has exactly m minimal prime ideals Q1,Q2,,Qm, and such that, for every i = 1,2,,m, the set of maximal elements of {P Spec(T)P A = Qi} is the set Ci.

Keywords
