Abstract

A ring extension \(R\subseteq S\) is said to be residually FCP if, for all \(Q\in \mathrm {Spec}(S)\), each chain of rings between \(R/(Q\cap R)\) and S / Q is finite. The aim of this note is to establish several necessary and sufficient conditions for such extensions. We also study them, with emphasis on base rings R of Krull dimension 0. In particular we show that if \(R\subseteq S\) is residually FCP and \(\dim (R)=0\), then S is integral over R. This generalizes a result due to Anderson and Dobbs (Math. Rep. (Bucur.) 3(53):95–103, 2001).
