Abstract
Let D be an integral domain with quotient field K, let (F(D) (f(D)) be the set of nonzero (finitely generated) fractional ideals of D, and let ★ be a star-operation on F(D).For A ∊ F(D) and there exists J∊f(D) such that J★=D, and xJ ⊆ A}.Then A
★w = {x ∊ K | exists J ∊ f(D) such that J
★ = D, and xJ ⊆ A}. Then
and ★w are star-operations on F(D) that satisfy
