A local ring of an algebraic variety or a completion of such a ring. A commutative ring obtained from a ring of polynomials over a field by means of the operations of completion, localization and factorization by a prime ideal is called an algebro-geometric ring [3]. A local ring of an irreducible algebraic variety does not obtain nilpotent elements as a result of completion [2]. This property of a local ring is known as analytic reducibility. A similar fact concerning local rings of normal varieties [1] is that the completion of a local ring of a normal algebraic variety is a normal ring (analytic normality). Examples of local Noetherian rings that are not analytically reduced or analytically normal are known [4]. A pseudo-geometric ring is a Noetherian ring any quotient ring of which by a prime ideal is a Japanese ring. An integral domain $A$ is called a Japanese ring if its integral closure in a finite extension of the field of fractions is a finite $A$-module [5]. The class of pseudo-geometric rings is closed with respect to localizations and extensions of finite type; it includes the ring of integers and all complete local rings. See also Excellent ring.
