Krull's Theorem states that in a Noetherian ring, every prime ideal is contained in a maximal ideal. This fundamental result provides insights into the structure of rings, particularly by establishing a connection between prime and maximal ideals. It plays a crucial role in understanding how ideals behave within Noetherian rings and also lays the groundwork for analyzing Artinian rings, where the converse is relevant.
