Abstract

We study the class of integrally closed domains having a unique Kronecker function ring, or equivalently, domains in which the completion (or b-operation) is the only e.a.b star operation of finite type. Such domains are a generalization of Prüfer domains and have fairly simple sets of valuation overrings. We give characterizations by studying valuation overrings and integral closure of finitely generated ideals. We provide new examples of such domains and show that for several well-known classes of integral domains the property of having a unique Kronecker function ring makes them fall into the class of Prüfer domains.
