Question #22734

Let R be a commutative domain and S^(−1)R be the localization of R at a multiplicative set S.
Is "rad R ⊆ R ∩ rad S−1R"?

Expert's answer

This inclusion in not true ingeneral. Let’s take a commutative local domain (R,m) with nonzero m. Then rad R
= m, but for S = R {0}, S−1R is a field, with rad S−1R = 0.
