Properties induced by surjective ring homomorphism between two integral domains

194 Views Asked by At

Let $f: R \rightarrow S$ be surjective ring homomorphism between two integral domains.

(a) If $R$ satisfies Ascending Chain Condition on Principal Ideals, must $S$ also satisfies Ascending Chain Condition on Principal Ideals?

(b) If every irreducible elements in $R$ is prime, must every irreducible elements in $S$ be prime?
