This page has been identified as a candidate for refactoring of basic complexity.
In particular: multiple definitions
Until this has been finished, please leave {{Refactor}} in the code.

New contributors: Refactoring is a task which is expected to be undertaken by experienced editors only.

Because of the underlying complexity of the work needed, it is recommended that you do not embark on a refactoring task until you have become familiar with the structural nature of pages of $\mathsf{Pr} \infty \mathsf{fWiki}$.
To discuss this page in more detail, feel free to use the talk page.
When this work has been completed, you may remove this instance of {{Refactor}} from the code.


Definition

Let $A$ be a commutative ring with unity.

Let $S \subseteq A$ be a multiplicatively closed subset.


Definition 1

The saturation of $S$ is the smallest saturated multiplicatively closed subset of $A$ containing $S$.

That is, it is the intersection of all saturated multiplicatively closed subsets containing $S$.


Due to the organization of pages at $\mathsf{Pr} \infty \mathsf{fWiki}$, this argument is circular.
In particular: this is a general issue with definitions of examples of closure operators
You can help $\mathsf{Pr} \infty \mathsf{fWiki}$ by resolving this issue.
To discuss this page in more detail, feel free to use the talk page.
When this work has been completed, you may remove this instance of {{CircularStructure}} from the code.
If you would welcome a second opinion as to whether your work is correct, add a call to {{Proofread}} the page.



Definition 2

The saturation of $S$ is the set of divisors of elements of $S$.


Definition 3

The saturation of $S$ is the set of elements whose image in the localization $A_S$ is a unit of $A$.


Definition 4

The saturation of $S$ is the complement relative to $A$ of the union of prime ideals that are disjoint from $S$:

$\ds \map {\operatorname {Sat} } S = A \setminus \bigcup \set {\mathfrak p \in \Spec A: \mathfrak p \cap S = \O}$
