This article defines a property that can be evaluated for a homomorphism of commutative unital rings

Definition

Suppose R and S are commutative unital rings and f:RS is a homomorphism of commutative unital rings. Then, we say that f is an integral morphism if S is an integral extension of the image of R in S. Equivalently, we say that f is an integral morphism if every element of S satisfies a monic polynomial with coefficients in R.
