On congruence half-factorial Krull monoids with cyclic class group (Q2295754): Difference between revisions

The authors carry out a detailed investigation of congruence half-factorial Krull monoids of various orders with finite cyclic class group and related problems. Specifically, they determine precisely all relatively large values that can occur as a minimal distance of a Krull monoid with finite cyclic class group, as well as the exact distribution of prime divisors over the ideal classes in these cases. Their results apply to various classical objects, including maximal orders and certain semigroups of modules. In addition, they present applications to quantitative problems in factorization theory. More specifically, they determine exponents in the asymptotic formulas for the number of algebraic integers whose sets of lengths have a large difference.
