Abstract

Let AA be a Rees-like algebra of dimension dd and NN a commutative partially cancellative torsion-free seminormal monoid. We prove the following results. \begin{enumerate} \item Let PP be a finitely generated projective AA-module of \rankd\rank\geq d. Then (i)(i) PP has a unimodular element; (ii)(ii) The action of \EL(AP)\EL(A\oplus P) on \Um(AP)\Um(A\oplus P) is transitive. \item Let PP be a finitely generated projective A[N]A[N]-module of \rank r\rank~r. Then (i)(i) PP has a unimodular element for rmax{3,d}r\geq\max\{3,d\}; (ii)(ii) The action of \EL(A[N]P)\EL(A[N]\oplus P) on \Um(A[N]P)\Um(A[N]\oplus P) is transitive for rmax{2,d}r\geq\max\{2,d\}. \end{enumerate} These improve the classical results of Serre \cite{Se58} and Bass \cite{Ba64}.

Comments

There was an error. Proposition 3.5(3) is incomplete and Lemma 3.7 is incorrect. Proposition 3.5(3) and Lemma 3.7 have been used in the proof of Proposition 5.1 and 5.3
