Abstract: Let I be a regular proper ideal in a Noetherian ring R, let ege2 be an integer, let mathbfTe=R[u,tI,ufrac1e]capR[ufrac1e,tfrac1e] (where t is an indeterminate and u=frac1t), and let mathbfre=ufrac1emathbfTe. Then the Itoh (e)-valuation rings of I are the rings (mathbfTe/z)(p/z), where p varies over the (height one) associated prime ideals of mathbfre and z is the (unique) minimal prime ideal in mathbfTe that is contained in p. We show, among other things: (1) mathbfre is a radical ideal if and only if e is a common multiple of the Rees integers of I. (2) For each integer kge2, there is a one-to-one correspondence between the Itoh (k)-valuation rings (V,N) of I and the Rees valuation rings (W,Q) of uR[u,tI]; namely, if F(u) is the quotient field of W, then V is the integral closure of W in F(ufrac1k). (3) For each integer kge2, if (V,N) and (W,Q) are corresponding valuation rings, as in (2), then V is a finite integral extension domain of W, and W and V satisfy the Fundamental Equality with no splitting. Also, if uW=Qe, and if the greatest common divisor of e and k is d, and c is the integer such that cd=k, then QV=Nc and [(V/N):(W/Q)]=d. Further, if uW=Qe and k=qe is a multiple of e, then there exists a unit hetaeinV such that V=W[hetae,ufrac1k] is a finite free integral extension domain of W,QV=Nq,N=ufrac1kV, and [V:W]=k. (4) If the Rees integers of I are all equal to e, then V=W[hetae] is a simple free integral extension domain of W,QV=N=ufrac1eV, and [V:W]=e=[(V/N):(W/Q)].
