Almost excellent unique factorization domains

Abstract

Let $(T, 𝔪)$ be a complete local (Noetherian) domain such that $depth T > 1$ . In addition, suppose $T$ contains the rationals, $| T | = | T ∕ 𝔪 |$ , and the set of all principal height-1 prime ideals of $T$ has the same cardinality as $T$ . We construct a universally catenary local unique factorization domain $A$ such that the completion of $A$ is $T$ and such that there exist uncountably many height-1 prime ideals $𝔮$ of $A$ such that ${(T ∕ (𝔮 \cap A) T)}_{𝔮}$ is a field. Furthermore, in the case where $T$ is a normal domain, we can make $A$ “close” to excellent in the following sense: the formal fiber at every prime ideal of $A$ of height not equal to 1 is geometrically regular, and uncountably many height-1 prime ideals of $A$ have geometrically regular formal fibers.
