Any number constructible out of the integers with roots, addition, and multiplication is an algebraic integer; but not all algebraic integers are so constructible: in a naïve sense, most roots of irreducible quintics are not. This is the Abel-Ruffini theorem.
* The ring of algebraic integers is a Bézout domain, as a consequence of the principal ideal theorem.
