Gorenstein Krull domains and their factor rings

The concept of Gorenstein Krull domains can be viewed as a Gorenstein analogue of Krull domains, which are not necessarily integrally closed. This allows us to study those domains from the point view of Gorenstein homological algebra. By the so-called w-operation, we prove that an integral domain is Gorenstein Krull if and only if for any nonzero nonunit, the Gorenstein global dimension of its w-factor ring is zero.
