Extrapolating an Euler class (1502.02405v2)

Published 9 Feb 2015 in math.KT

Abstract: Let $R$ be a noetherian ring of dimension $d$ and let $n$ be an integer so that $n \leq d\leq 2n-3$. Let $(a_1,...,a_{n+1})$ be a unimodular row so that the ideal $J=(a_1,...,a_n)$ has height $n$. Jean Fasel has associated to this row an element $[(J,\omega_J)]$ in the Euler class group $En(R)$, with $\omega_J:(R/J)n\to J/J2$ given by $(a_1,...,a_{n-1},a_n a_{n+1})$. If $R$ contains an infinite field $F$ then we show that the rule of Fasel defines a homomorphism from $WMS_{n+1}(R)=Um_{n+1}(R)/E_{n+1}(R)$ to $En(R)$. The main problem is to get a well defined map on all of $Um_{n+1}(R)$. Similar results have been obtained by Mrinal Kanti Das and MD Ali Zinna, with a different proof. Our proof uses that every Zariski open subset of $SL_{n+1}(F)$ is path connected for walks made up of elementary matrices.
