Strongly graded modules and positively graded modules which are unique factorization modules (Q6595644)

Let \(D=\bigoplus_{n\in \mathbb{Z}}D_n\) be a strongly \(\mathbb{Z}\)-graded domain, and let \(M=\bigoplus_{n\in \mathbb{Z}}M_n\) be a \(D\)-graded module satisfying a certain ascending chain condition. It is proved that if \(M_0\) is a unique factorization module over \(D_0\), then so is \(M\) over \(D\). It is also investigated when \(\bigoplus_{n\geq 0}M_n\) is a unique factorization module over \(\bigoplus_{n\geq 0}D_n\).
