Title: Unique factorisation in power series rings Abstract: Let R be a unique factorisation domain (UFD). It is well known that the polynomial ring R[X] is also a UFD, but the same does not apply to the power series ring R[[X]]. In 1961, Samuel constructed a Noetherian UFD R such that R[[X]] does not...
