On Dedekind domains whose class groups are direct sums of cyclic groups

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: For a given family (Gi)iinN of finitely generated abelian groups, we construct a Dedekind domain D having the following properties. �egin{enumerate} item . item For each iinN, there exists a submonoid with Pic(DSi)congGi. item Each class of Pic(D) and of all Pic(DSi) contains infinitely many prime ideals. end{enumerate} Furthermore, we study orders as well as sets of lengths in the Dedekind domain D and in all its localizations DSi.


The paper deals with ideas connected to Claborn's Realization Theorem [\textit{L. Claborn}, Pac. J. Math. 18, 219--222 (1966; Zbl 0166.30602)], that states that every abelian group is isomorphic to the class group of a Dedekind domain. The main result of the present paper shows that given a family \((G_i)_{i\in \mathbb{N}}\) of finitely generated abelian groups, there is a Dedekind domain \(D\) such that: (i) Pic\((D)=\mathop\bigoplus\limits_{i\in\mathbb{N}} G_i\); (ii) for each \(i\in\mathbb{N}\) there is a submonoid \(S_i\subset D^\bullet\) such that Pic\((D_{S_i})\simeq G_i;\) (iii) each class of Pic\((D)\) and of all Pic\((D_{S_i})\) contains infinitely many height one prime ideals. Orders in \(D\) and in all the localizations \(D_{S_i}\) are studied,
