  PlanetMath: Euclidean domain
A Euclidean domain is an integral domain where a Euclidean valuation has been defined.
Any Euclidean domain is also a principal ideal domain and therefore also a unique factorization domain.
This is version 9 of Euclidean domain, born on 2002-05-27, modified 2006-07-31.

 Euclidean Domains   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
A euclidean domain is a ring with a metric d() that maps the nonzero elements of the ring into the positive integers, and satisfies d(a*b) ≥ d(a), and for any nonzero a and b there is c and r, such that a = c*b+r, and r = 0 or d(r) < d(b).
The gaussian integers form a euclidean domain, where d(z) measures the square of the distance to the origin.
Adjoining the square root of -2 to the integers produces a euclidean domain, using the same d(z) metric as above.

 PlanetMath: Euclidean valuation
An Euclidean valuation is a function from non-zero elements to the non-negative integers
Euclidean valuations are important because they let us define greatest common divisors and use Euclid's algorithm.

Similarly to the Euclidean case, filtering in the spherical domain involves decomposing the spherical image into correlation coefficients via convolution with a bank of analysis filters.
Self-invertibility is desirable for image manipulation in the wavelet domain, leading to an intuitive notion that a convolution coefficient corresponds to the contribution of the corresponding filter to the reconstructed signal.
A similar problem in the Euclidean domain led to the invention of overcomplete wavelets, such as steerable pyramids [4].

While it is clear that for any unique factorization domain the concept of GCD is well-defined, it is not always clear how to actually compute GCDs.
For example, if D is a unique factorization domain the polynomial ring D[x] is also a unique factorization domain.
However, D[x] is not a Euclidean Domain if D is not a field.

By the mid-sixteenth century, educated Europeans were beginning to accept (at least psychologically) that the space around them on earth was a Euclidean domain.
The new Euclidean vision of space raised the possibility that there were not two kinds of space, but that there was just one, encompassing both the earth and the celestial heavens.
The very qualities of Euclidean space that made it such a fruitful foundation for the evolution of mathematical physics are just the qualities that have also become so problematic for those who wish to assert the reality of a "spiritual" plane of being.

If R is not an Euclidean Domain then, currently, only arithmetic with vectors is supported.
In particular, the ability to work with submodules and quotient modules is restricted to situations where R is either a field or Euclidean Domain.
In the first part of the chapter we describe the operations that apply to modules generally, while in the second half we describe the creation of modules Hom_R(M, N) together with the operations that are specific to them.
