The concept of regular sequence of elements of a ring A (first introduced by Serre under the name of A-sequence [2]), has far-reaching uses in the theory of local rings and in algebraic geometry. It seems, however, that it loses much of its importance when A is not a noetherian ring, and in that case, it probably should be superseded by the concept of quasi-regular sequence [1].
