Abstract

We consider general factorization properties of particular classes of integral domains. More specifically, we investigate the bounded factorization property of the monoid domain where is an additive submonoid of the nonnegative rational numbers, a ring of polynomial-like expressions where exponents come from We accomplish this task by examining sufficient and necessary factorization properties of the associated monoid and, in particular, its irreducibles. We divide our work into two sections: we first consider those bounded factorization domains with the finite factorization property, and, finally, we characterize all bounded factorization monoid domains by precisely determining the necessary factorization properties of its associated monoid.
