Examples of almost Dedekind domains that are not Dedekind

All I know about almost Dedekind domains (which I have come to learn about only recently) is that they are integral domains whose localization at every prime is a discrete valuation ring. In other ...

Rings of $S$-integers are finitely generated as rings

Let $K$ be a global field (number field or algebraic function field over a finite field), $\mathcal{V}$ the set of $\mathbb{Z}$-valuations on $K$, $S \subseteq \mathcal{V}$ a finite set. The ring of $...

Decomposition of finite algebras over finite fields

Let $K$ be a number field, $Z_K$ its ring of integers, and $p$ a rational prime number. Then $A_p = Z_K/(p)$ is a finite ${\mathbb F}_p$-algebra. Using ideal arithmetic in $Z_K$ and the Chinese ...
