Abstract. A reduced, cancellative, torsion-free, commutative monoid M can be embedded in an integral domain R, where the atoms (irreducible elements) of M correspond to a subset of the atoms of R. This fact was used by J.Coykendall and B. Mammenga to show that for any reduced, cancellative, torsion-free, commutative, atomic monoid M , there exists an integral domain R with atomic factorization structure isomorphic to M . More generally, we show that any "nice" subset of atoms of R can be realized as the set of atoms of an integral domain T that contains R. We will also give several applications of this result.Mathematics Subject Classification (2010): 20M14, 20M15, 13G05
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
