Abstract

Let an integral domain R be locally polynomial over an integral domain D and let R be a content module over D. We show that if D is a PVMD, then $$Cl_t(R){\sim_=}Cl_t(D)$$. This generalizes the polynomial case. We also show that R is a PVMD if and only if D is a PVMD if and only if $R_{N_v}$ is a PVMD.
