adj

• (geometry) Shaped like a catenary; following the curve made by a chain or rope when suspended from both ends.
  "The curve so formed is a catenarian curve, and, when inverted, delineates the curve of a type of arch better able to resist forces of destruction than the earlier semicircular arch. Investigators who followed Galilei and studied the catenarian arch mathematically were able to show that a simple catenarian outline was formed by the chan suspeneded as already described, the length of the chain depending upon the required span and rise of the arch."
• (ring theory) Having the property that every ascending chain of prime ideals eventually stabilizes, meaning that there is a finite length for the chains of prime ideals.
  "Each universally catenarian domain is catenarian and, hence, LFD."
