n-generator ideals in Prüfer domains

Richard Gordon Swan

Vol. 111 (1984), No. 2, 433–446
Abstract

Heitmann has shown that a finitely generated ideal in a Prüfer domain of Krull dimension n needs at most n + 1 generators. I will show here that this result is, in fact, the best possible. The same is true for Heitmann’s stability theorems.
