Valuations and their generalizations for commutative rings (13A18) Commutative rings and modules of finite generation or presentation; number of generators (13E15) Valuation rings (13F30) Special types (Cohen-Macaulay, Gorenstein, Buchsbaum, etc.) (13H10)

Abstract: It is shown that a local ring R of bounded module type is an almost maximal valuation ring if there exists a non-maximal prime ideal J such that R/J is a maximal valuation domain.

Review text

A commutative ring \(R\) with identity is called of bounded module type if for some positive integer \(n\), every finitely generated \(R\)-module is a direct sum of submodules generated by at most \(n\) elements. \textit{R. B. Warfield} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 25, 167-172 (1970; Zbl 0204.05902)] proved that every local ring of bounded module type is a valuation ring. Later results of several authors have led to the question whether a local ring \(R\) is of bounded module type if and only if \(R\) is an almost maximal valuation ring. The author proves that a local ring \(R\) of bounded module type is an almost maximal valuation ring if there exists a non-maximal prime ideal \(J\) such that \(R/J\) is an almost maximal valuation domain. As a consequence, the above question has a positive answer if \(R\) is a \(\mathbb Q\)-algebra of Krull dimension \(\geq 1\) or the maximal ideal is the union of all non-maximal prime ideals or the maximal ideal is finitely generated.
