A prime Weil divisor is an integral closed subscheme of codimension one. If has generic point , regularity in codimension one makes the local ring a discrete valuation ring with fraction field . Its normalized discrete valuationis the order of vanishing along : writing for a unit and uniformizer gives . Additivity of exponents makes this a group homomorphism.
