Characterizations of Krull rings with zero divisors (Q1970731)

In the paper under review the author proves, among other results, that the following three properties are equivalent: (a) \(R\) is a Krull ring; (b) every non-zero regular prime ideal of \(R\) contains a \(t\)-invertible prime ideal; (c) every proper regular principal ideal of \(R\) is equal to a \(t\)-product and equal to a \(v\)-product of prime ideals. In the proof (a)\(\Leftrightarrow\)(b) the author removes the hypothesis: \(R\) is a Marot ring, that was used in a previous paper by the author himself [\textit{B. G. Kang}, J. Pure Appl. Algebra 72, No. 1, 33-38 (1991; Zbl 0752.13014)]. In the proof (a)\(\Leftrightarrow\)(c) the author extends to rings with zero divisors a result of \textit{S. Tramel} for integral domains [Thesis (Louisiana State Univ. 1968)].
