Krull dimension of polynomial ring #

This file proves properties of the Krull dimension of the polynomial ring over a commutative ring

Main results #

Let p be a maximal ideal of R. Then the height of p[X] equals the height of p.

Let p be a prime ideal of R. If P is a maximal ideal of R[X] lying over p, ht(P) = ht(p) + 1.

@[simp]

If R is Noetherian, dim R[X] = dim R + 1.

If R is Noetherian, dim R[X₁, ..., Xₙ] = dim R + n.
