Abstract
For a ring extension R ⊆ S, (R, S) is called a universally catenarian pair if every domain T, R ⊆ T ⊆ S, is universally catenarian. When R is a field it is shown that the only universally catenarian pairs are those satisfying tr.deg[S : R] ≤ 1. For dimR ≥ 1 several satisfactory results are given. The second purpose of this paper is to study going-down pairs (Definition 5.1). We characterize these pairs of rings and we establish a relationship between universally catenarian, going-down and residually algebraic pairs.
