UFD imply ACCP (ascending chain condition for principal ideals). But is it necessarily UFD implies ACC also (ascending chain condition for ideals)?

  • If it were so, you'd probably have seen a theorem stating it. So guess that there are UFDs that aren't Noetherian. Where you should first look for (counter)examples depends on your background. – Daniel Fischer Sep 22 '15 at 11:30

    Is there a reason for deleting the previous question after someone answered one of your questions and after I gave you a link where you could find the example given below? – user26857 Sep 22 '15 at 20:51

No. If $K$ is a field, $K[X_1,X_2,\dots, X_n,\dots]$ is an example of a non-noetherian UFD.
