dc.descriptionThe \emph{canonical structures of the plane} are those that result, up to isomorphism, from the rings that have the form $\mathds{R}[x]/(ax^2+bx+c)$ with $a\neq 0$.That ring is isomorphic to $\mathds{R}[θ]$, where $θ$ is the equivalence class of x, which satisfies $θ^2 = (-\dfrac{c}{a}) + θ(-\dfrac{b}{a})$. On the other hand, it is known that, up to isomorphism, there are only three canonical structures: the corresponding to $θ^2 = -1$ (the complex numbers), $θ^2 = 1$ (the perplex or hyperbolic numbers) and $θ^2 = 0$ (the parabolic numbers). This article copes with the algebraic structure of the rings of integers $\mathds{Z}[θ]$ in the perplex and parabolic cases by \emph{analogy} to the complex cases: the ring of Gaussian integers. For those rings a \emph{division algorithm} is proved and it is obtained, as a consequence, the characterization of the prime and irreducible elements.
