Jarboui, Noômen; Yengui, Ihsen Absolutely S-domains and pseudo-polynomial rings. (English) Zbl 1062.13500 Colloq. Math. 94, No. 1, 1-19 (2002). From the paper: A domain \(R\) is said to be an S-domain if for each height 1 prime ideal \(p\) of \(R\), we have \(\text{ht}(p[X])=1\); \(R\) is called an absolutely S-domain (for short, AS-domain) if each domain \(T\) such that \(R\subseteq T\subseteq \text{qf}(R)\) is an S-domain. We show that \(R\) is an AS-domain if and only if for each valuation overring \(V\) of \(R\) and each height one prime ideal \(q\) of \(V\), the extension \(R/(q\cap R)\subseteq V/q\) is algebraic. A Noetherian domain \(R\) is an AS-domain if and only if \(\dim(R)\leq 1\). In section 2, we study a class of \(R\)-subalgebras of \(R[X]\) which share many spectral properties with the polynomial ring \(R[X]\) and which we call pseudo-polynomial rings. Section 3 is devoted to an affirmative answer to D. E. Dobbs’s question of whether a survival pair must be a lying-over pair in the case of transcendental extension.
