Our starting point is an observation in elementary number theory [10, Exercise 26, p. 17]: if a and b are positive integers such that each number in the sequence a, b2, a3, b4, ... divides the next, then a = b. Its proof depends only on Z being a unique factorization domain (UFD) whose units are 1, —1. Accordingly, we abstract and say that a (commutative integral) domain R satisfies (*) in case, whenever nonzero elements a and b in R are such that each element in the sequence a, b2, a3, b4, ... divides the next, then a and b are associates in R (that is, a = bu for some unit u of R). The main objective of this paper is the study of the class of domains satisfying (*).
