On the prime divisors of zero in form rings

Louis Jackson Ratliff, Jr.

Vol. 70 (1977), No. 2, 489–517
Abstract

A number of new results concerning the prime divisors of zero in the form ring (A,I) of a Noetherian ring A with respect to an ideal I in A are found by using certain auxiliary rings of the Rees ring (A,I). Then it is shown that in every semi-local ring R there exist open ideals Q such that the prime divisors of u(R,Q) have a number of properties known to hold when Q is a normal ideal and R is analytically unramified.
