Let \(M\) be a Krull monoid. For a non-unit \(x\in M\) let \(l(x),L(x)\) denote the smallest, resp. the largest length of a factorization of \(x\) into irreducibles. The ratio \(\rho(x)=L(x)/l(x)\) is called the elasticity of \(x\), and the elasticity of \(M\) is defined by \(\rho(M))=\sup_x\{\rho(x)\}\). The authors consider Krull monoids with infinite cyclic class group and prove (Theorem 1.1) that the condition \(\rho(M)<\infty\) is equivalent to each of three other finiteness conditions, involving the Delta set of \(M\) and its catenary degree.
