Abstract
The connection between a univariate polynomial having locally principal content and the content function acting like a homomorphism (the so-called Gaussian property) has been explored by many authors. In this work, we extend several such results to the contexts of multivariate polynomials, power series over a Noetherian ring, and base change of affine K-algebras by separable algebraically closed field extensions. We do so by using the framework of the Ohm-Rush content function. The correspondence is particularly strong in cases where the base ring is approximately Gorenstein or the element of the target ring is regular.
