✦ Synopsis

We investigate two classes of monoids and integral domains, called inside and outside factorial, whose definitions are closely related in a divisor-theoretic manner to the concept of unique factorization. We prove that a monoid is outside factorial if and only if it is a Krull monoid with torsion class group, and that it is inside factorial if and only if its root-closure is a rational generalized Krull monoid with torsion class group. We determine the structure of Cale bases of inside factorial monoids and characterize inside factorial monoids among weakly Krull monoids. These characterizations carry over to integral domains. Inside factorial orders in algebraic number fields are characterized by several other factorization properties.

A half-factorial domain (HFD), R, is an atomic integral domain where given any two products of irreducible elements of R: As a natural generalization of unique factorization domains (UFD), one wishes to investigate which "good" properties of UFDs that HFDs possess. In particular, it has been conjec

Though Euclidean domains are principal ideal domains, the converse is known to be false. We develop a notion like that of the Euclidean ring for which the converse is true. We similarly give new characterizations of Dedekind, Krull, and unique factorization domains. We also introduce the idea of ind
