Abstract
Let $D$ be a domain with fraction field $K$, and let $M_n(D)$ be the ring of $n imes n$ matrices with entries in $D$. The ring of integer-valued polynomials on the matrix ring $M_n(D)$, denoted $Int_K(M_n(D))$, consists of those polynomials in $K[x]$ that map matrices in $M_n(D)$ back to $M_n(D)$ under evaluation. It has been known for some time that $Int_Q(M_n(Z))$ is not integrally closed. However, it was only recently that an example of a polynomial in the integral closure of $Int_Q(M_n(Z))$ but not in the ring itself appeared in the literature, and the published example is specific to the case $n=2$. In this paper, we give a construction that produces polynomials that are integral over $Int_K(M_n(D))$ but are not in the ring itself, where $D$ is a Dedekind domain with finite residue fields and $n geq 2$ is arbitrary. We also show how our general example is related to $P$-sequences for $Int_K(M_n(D))$ and its integral closure in the case where $D$ is a discrete valuation ring.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
