[parent] ideals in a Dedekind domain (Theorem)

Let $ R$ be a Dedekind domain, and let $ \mathfrak{a}$ and $ \mathfrak{b}$ be ideals of $ R$. Then there is an element $ \omega$ and an ideal $ \mathfrak{c}$ of $ R$ such that

$\displaystyle \mathfrak{ac} = (\omega)$
and
$\displaystyle \mathfrak{b+c} = R.$

This result was proved by Steinitz in 1911.
