  Abstract:
In this paper, we show that the property of being catenary and locally equidimensional descends by flat homomorphism. More precisely, if φ: RS is a flat homomorphism of Noetherian rings then S is catenary and equidimensional if R is locally equidimensional and the rings R/\frakpRS, \frakp ∈ MinR, are catenary and locally equidimensional. Let k be a field, A a k-algebra, and K an extension field of k. Then we show that the KkA is universally catenary if one of the following holds:a) A is universally catenary and K a finitely generatedextension field of k.b)A is Noetherian universally catenary and t.d. (K:k) < ∞.c) A is universally catenary and K_kA
