overring

In mathematics, an overring of an integral domain contains the integral domain, and the integral domain's field of fractions contains the overring. Overrings provide an improved understanding of different types of rings and domains.

Definition

In this article, all rings are commutative rings, and ring and overring share the same identity element.

Let $Q(A)$ represent the field of fractions of an integral domain $A$ . Ring $B$ is an overring of integral domain $A$ if $A$ is a subring of $B$ and $B$ is a subring of the field of fractions $Q(A)$ ;{{sfn|Fontana|Papick|2002}}{{rp|167}} the relationship is $A \subseteq B \subseteq Q(A)$ .{{sfn|Papick|1978}}{{rp|373}}

The Kaplansky ideal transform (Hayes transform, S-transform) of ideal $I$ with respect to integral domain $R$ is a subset of the fraction field $Q(R)$ .
