Let $R$ be a real smooth affine domain of dimension $3$ such that $R$ has either no real maximal ideals or the intersection of all real maximal ideals in $R$ has height at least $1$. Then we prove that all stably free $R$-modules of rank…

We show that there exists a stably free module over a polynomial ring which is not extended from the ground ring. This provides a counterexample to the Hermite ring conjecture.

We study the cancellation property of projective modules of rank $2$ with a trivial determinant over Noetherian rings of dimension $\leq 4$. If $R$ is a smooth affine algebra of dimension $4$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ such that…

Let $(R,\mm,K)$ be a regular local ring containing a field $k$ such that either char $k=0$ or char $k=p$ and tr-deg $K/\BF_p\geq 1$. Let $g_1,\ldots,g_t$ be regular parameters of $R$ which are linearly independent modulo $\mm^2$. Let…

Constructive proofs of fact that a stably free left $S$-module $M$ with rank$(M)\geq$sr$(S)$ is free, where sr$(S)$ denotes the stable rank of an arbitrary ring $S$, were developed in some articles. Additionally, in such papers, are…

Let $F_m$ be the free group on $m$ generators and let $G$ be a finite nilpotent group of non square-free order; we show that for each $m\ge 2$ the integral group ring ${\bf Z}[G\times F_m]$ has infinitely many stably free modules of rank 1.

We prove that stably free modules of rank d-1 over a smooth affine algebra of dimension d over an algebraically closed field k are free, provided (d-1)! is nonzero in k.

It was proved in [3] that every h-divisible modules admits an strongly flat cover over all integral domains; and every divisible module over an integral domain R admits a strongly flat cover if and only if R is a Matlis domain. In this…

We prove that every rational extension of the quantum harmonic oscillator that is exactly solvable by polynomials is monodromy free, and therefore can be obtained by applying a finite number of state-deleting Darboux transformations on the…

We introduce the class E2 (resp. SE2) of commutative rings R with the property that each unimodular 2 x 2 matrix with entries in R extends to an invertible 3 x 3 matrix (resp. invertible 3 x 3 matrix whose (3, 3) entry is 0). Among…

A commutative ring $R$ is projective free provided that every finitely generated $R$-module is free. An element in a ring is strongly clean provided that it is the sum of an idempotent and a unit that commutates. Let $R$ be a…

We reobtain and often refine prior criteria due to Kaplansky, McGovern, Roitman, Shchedryk, Wiegand, and Zabavsky--Bilavska and obtain new criteria for a Hermite ring to be an \textsl{EDR}. We mention three criteria: (1) a Hermite ring $R$…

We prove a new kind of homological stability theorem for automorphism groups of finitely-generated projective modules over Dedekind domains, which takes into account all possible stabilisation maps between these, rather than only…

Let R be a commutative noetherian local ring and consider the set of isomorphism classes of indecomposable totally reflexive R-modules. We prove that if this set is finite, then either it has exactly one element, represented by the rank 1…

In this paper we prove that if R is a left Noetherian and left regular ring such that all finitely generated projective left R-modules are stably free, then the same is true for the completion R[[x;\sigma,\delta]] of any Ore extension…

Let R be a strongly Z-graded ring with degree-0 subring S, and let C be a chain complex of modules over the subring P of elements of non-negative degree. We show that there are non-commutative localisations of P which detect whether the…

We provide a class of commutative Noetherian domains $R$ of dimension $d$ such that every finitely generated projective $R$-module $P$ of rank $d$ splits off a free summand of rank one. On this class, we also show that $P$ is cancellative.…

Let $S$ be a deeply embedded, equicharacteristic, Artinian Gorenstein local ring. We prove that if $R$ is a non-Gorenstein quotient of $S$ of small colength, then every totally reflexive $R$-module is free. Indeed, the second syzygy of the…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring of dimension $d$, $S = R[X]$ or $R[X, 1/X]$ and $P$ a finitely generated projective $S$ module of rank $r$. Then $P$ is cancellative if $P$ has a unimodular element and $r \geq d + 1$. Moreover if $r \geq \dim…

The aim of this article is to describe necessary and sufficient conditions for simplicity of Ore extension rings, with an emphasis on differential polynomial rings. We show that a differential polynomial ring, R[x;id,\delta], is simple if…
