Condition for an A-module to be an A-algebra












3














Let B be an A-algebra where A is a noetherian ring



Prove that E the set of integral elements over A in B form a subring of B.



What I did:



I tried to prove that E is a subalgebra of B.
I proved by induction that E is a finitely-generated sub-module of B. Does it make it a sub-algebra of B ? on which conditions?

          I'm not sure how you proved that $E$ is a finitely generated $B$-submodule, which it isn't generally; it is generally not a finitely generated $A$-module either.



          The condition for an element $bin B$ to be integral over $A$ is that $A[b]$ is a finitely generated $A$-module.



          If $b,cin E$, then $c$ is integral over $A[b]$, so $A[b][c]$ is a finitely generated $A[b]$-module; hence also a finitely generated $A$-module (prove it). Since $b+c$ and $bc$ belong to $A[b][c]$, we see that both $A[b+c]$ and $A[bc]$ are finitely generated $A$-modules. Try and see where $A$ being Noetherian is used.

          Not necessarily. Consider for example $B=A[X]$. The submodule generated by $1$ and $X$ is not closed under multiplication and so is not a subalgebra.
