# Integral closure as a characteristic predicate #
We prove basic properties of IsIntegralClosure
.
If R → A → B
is an algebra tower,
then if the entire tower is an integral extension so is A → B
.
Suppose A
is an R
-algebra, M
is an A
-module such that a • m ≠ 0
for all non-zero a
and m
. If x : A
fixes a nontrivial f.g. R
-submodule N
of M
, then x
is R
-integral.

The Kurosh problem asks to show that
this is still true when A
is not necessarily commutative and R
is a field, but it has
been solved in the negative. See https://arxiv.org/pdf/1706.02383.pdf for criteria for a
finitely generated algebraic (= integral) algebra over a field to be finite dimensional.
This could be an instance
, but we tend to go from Module.Finite
to IsIntegral
/IsAlgebraic
,
and making it an instance will cause the search to be complicated a lot.

If A is an R-algebra all of whose elements are integral over R, and x is an element of an A-algebra that is integral over A, then x is integral over R.
If A is an R-algebra all of whose elements are integral over R, and B is an A-algebra all of whose elements are integral over A, then all elements of B are integral over R.
If R → A → B
is an algebra tower, C
is the integral closure of R
in B
and A

If R → A → B

If the integral extension R → S
is injective, and S
is a field, then R
is also a field.
