Statement

Suppose is a homomorphism of commutative unital rings. Then, let and denote the set of ideals in and respectively, viewed as partially ordered sets by inclusion. Consider the following maps:

  • The extension map which sends an ideal of to the ideal generated by its image in :

  • The contraction map which sends an ideal of to its full inverse image in :
