On graded Going down domains

Abstract

Let $\Gamma$ be a torsionless commutative cancellative monoid and $R =\bigoplus_{\alpha \in \Gamma}R_{\alpha}$ be a $\Gamma$-graded integral domain. In this paper, we introduce the notion of graded going-down domains. Among other things, we provide an equivalent condition for graded-Pr\"{u}fer domains in terms of graded going-down and graded finite-conductor domains. We also characterize graded going-down domains by means of graded divided domains. As an application, we show that the graded going-down property is stable under factor domains.
