| Popis: | The notion of an Ohm-Rush algebra, and its associated content map, has connections with prime characteristic algebra, polynomial extensions, and the Ananyan-Hochster proof of Stillman's conjecture. As further restrictions are placed (creating the increasingly more specialized notions of weak content, semicontent, content, and Gaussian algebras), the construction becomes more powerful. Here we settle the question in the affirmative over a Noetherian ring from our previous article of whether a faithfully flat weak content algebra is semicontent (and over an Artinian ring of whether such an algebra is content), though both questions remain open in general. We show that in content algebra maps over Pr\"ufer domains, heights are preserved and a dimension formula is satisfied. We show that an inclusion of nontrivial valuation domains is a content algebra if and only if the induced map on value groups is an isomorphism, and that such a map induces a homeomorphism on prime spectra. Examples are given throughout, including results that show the subtle role played by properties of transcendental field extensions. Comment: In addition to some cosmetic improvements, the referee report allowed expansion and improvement of enough things that the old Section 2 has been split into two sections (2 and 3). In the new Section 3, it is shown that all of our properties descend to factor rings, and that most of our properties are local. To appear in J. Algebra Appl |
