Abstract

A Q -ring is a commutative ring in which every ideal is a product of primary ideals. We show that R is a Q -ring if and only if R is a Laskerian ring (every ideal has a primary decomposition) and every nonmaximal prime ideal of R is finitely generated and locally principal. We also show that R [ X ] or R [ X ] is a Q -ring if and only if R is a finite direct product of Dedekind domains and special principal ideal rings.
