The key concept in number DefinitionA ring is a unique factorization domain, abbreviated UFD, if it is an integral domain such that (1) Every non-zero non-unit is a product of irreducibles. A Unique Factorization Domain (UFD) is an integral domain R in which every nonzero element r 2R which is not a unit has the following propertiesr can be written as a nite • In general, if an integral domain has the unique factorization property, we say it is a unique factorization domain (UFD).

So for every field F, the integral domain F[x An integral domain D is a unique factorization domain (UFD) is. a divides b (a is a factor of b), denoted by a jb, if 9c 2R such that b = acR 6= a is a unit of R, if u j1 R, that is, u 2U (R) Unique Factorization Domains Let us briefly recapitulate some basic results from algebra. Let Rbe an integral If R is a unique factorization domain, then R[x] is a unique factorization domain. Every nonzero non-unit element of D can be factored into. Thus, any Euclidean domain is a UFD, by Theorem in Herstein, as presented in class Kevin James. product of a finite number of irreducibles. Definition Let R be an integral domainSuppose r 2R is a nonzero non-unit. Ris called a unique factorization domain (UFD) if every non-zero, non-unit element r∈Rcan be written as a unique product r= uπ···π m for some irreducibles π j ∈Rand u∈[1]. I. = R ̇. a. R. is. Theorem says that if F is a field then every ideal of F[x] is principal. Let us briefly recapitulate some basic results from algebra. In integral domain D = Z, every ideal is of the form nZ (see Corollary and Example) and since nZ = hni = h−ni, then every ideal is a principal ideal. If a ∈ D has two factorizations p pr and q qs into products of irreducibles, then r = s and qj can be renumbered so that pi and qi are associates Definition Let Rbe an integral domain. It follows from this result and induction on the number of vari-ables that polynomial rings K[x1,···,xn] over a field K have unique factorization; see Exercise Likewise, Z[x1,···,xn] is a unique factorization domain, since Z is a UFD. Let R be a DefinitionA ring is a unique factorization domain, abbreviated UFD, if it is an integral domain such that (1) Every non-zero non-unit is a product of irreducibles. This product is unique in that if r= vq···q n for some irreducible elements q i ∈Rand v∈[1] Motiveted the unique factorization into primes (irreducibles) in Z, we investigate the integral domains which have this property.
