Let $R$ be subring of integral domain $S.$ Suppose $R$ is $textPID.$ Let $ain R$ be a greatest common divisor of $r_1,r_2$ in $R$. ($r_1,r_2 in R$, not both zero). Could anyone advise me on how to prove $a$ is greatest common divisor of $r_1,r_2$ in $S?$

Hint $ $ gcds in PIDs D persist in extension rings because the gcd may be specified by the solvability of (linear) equations over D, and such solutions always persist in extension rings, i.e. roots in D remain roots in rings $rm,R supset D.:$ More precisely, the Bezout identity for the gcd yields the following ring-theoretic equational specification for the gcd



$$begineqnarray rmgcd(a,b) = c &iff&rm (a,b) = (c)\
&iff&rm a = c:color#C00x , b= c:color#C00 y ,, a:color#C00 u + b: color#C00v = c has roots color#C00x,y,u,vin Dendeqnarray$$



Proof $ (Leftarrow):$ In any ring $rm R,:$ $rm:a: x = c, b: y = c:$ have roots $rm:x,yin R$ $iff$ $rm c | a,b:$ in $rm R.$ Further if $rm:c = a: u + b: v:$ has roots $rm:u,vin R:$ then $rm:d | a,b$ $:Rightarrow:$ $rm:d | a:u+b:v = c:$ in $rm: R.:$ Hence we infer $rm:c = gcd(a,b):$ in $rm: R,:$ being a common divisor divisible by every common divisor. $ (Rightarrow) $ If $rm:c = gcd(a,b):$ in D then the Bezout identity implies the existence of such roots $rm:u,vin D. $ QED



Rings with such linearly representable gcds are known as Bezout rings. As above, gcds in such rings always persist in extension rings. In particular, coprime elements remain coprime in extension rings (with same $1$). This need not be true without such Bezout linear representations of the gcd. For example, $rm:gcd(2,x) = 1:$ in $rm:mathbb Z[x]:$ but the gcd is the nonunit $:2:$ in $rm:mathbb Z[x/2]subset mathbb Q[x]$.

    Here is another proof.



    Let $()_S$ and $()_R$ denote the ideal generated by the thing inside the parentheses in $S$ and $R$ respectively. As $a$ is a GCD of $r_1$ and $r_2$ in $R$, $(a)_R = (r_1,r_2)_R$. Now if $emid r_1$ and $emid r_2$ in $S$, then $(r_1,r_2)_S subset (e)_S$. Obviously, $(r_1,r_2)_R subset (r_1,r_2)_S$, so we get $(a)_R subset (e)_S$, thus $a in (e)_S$ so $e mid a$ in $S$. And of course $amid r_1$ and $amid r_2$ in $S$. Therefore $a$ is a GCD in $S$ as well.

          Hint $ $ gcds in PIDs D persist in extension rings because the gcd may be specified by the solvability of (linear) equations over D, and such solutions always persist in extension rings, i.e. roots in D remain roots in rings $rm,R supset D.:$ More precisely, the Bezout identity for the gcd yields the following ring-theoretic equational specification for the gcd



          $$begineqnarray rmgcd(a,b) = c &iff&rm (a,b) = (c)\
          &iff&rm a = c:color#C00x , b= c:color#C00 y ,, a:color#C00 u + b: color#C00v = c has roots color#C00x,y,u,vin Dendeqnarray$$



          Proof $ (Leftarrow):$ In any ring $rm R,:$ $rm:a: x = c, b: y = c:$ have roots $rm:x,yin R$ $iff$ $rm c | a,b:$ in $rm R.$ Further if $rm:c = a: u + b: v:$ has roots $rm:u,vin R:$ then $rm:d | a,b$ $:Rightarrow:$ $rm:d | a:u+b:v = c:$ in $rm: R.:$ Hence we infer $rm:c = gcd(a,b):$ in $rm: R,:$ being a common divisor divisible by every common divisor. $ (Rightarrow) $ If $rm:c = gcd(a,b):$ in D then the Bezout identity implies the existence of such roots $rm:u,vin D. $ QED



          Rings with such linearly representable gcds are known as Bezout rings. As above, gcds in such rings always persist in extension rings. In particular, coprime elements remain coprime in extension rings (with same $1$). This need not be true without such Bezout linear representations of the gcd. For example, $rm:gcd(2,x) = 1:$ in $rm:mathbb Z[x]:$ but the gcd is the nonunit $:2:$ in $rm:mathbb Z[x/2]subset mathbb Q[x]$.

              Here is another proof.



              Let $()_S$ and $()_R$ denote the ideal generated by the thing inside the parentheses in $S$ and $R$ respectively. As $a$ is a GCD of $r_1$ and $r_2$ in $R$, $(a)_R = (r_1,r_2)_R$. Now if $emid r_1$ and $emid r_2$ in $S$, then $(r_1,r_2)_S subset (e)_S$. Obviously, $(r_1,r_2)_R subset (r_1,r_2)_S$, so we get $(a)_R subset (e)_S$, thus $a in (e)_S$ so $e mid a$ in $S$. And of course $amid r_1$ and $amid r_2$ in $S$. Therefore $a$ is a GCD in $S$ as well.
