On Projective modules over graded $R$-subalgebras of $R[X,1/X]$ (2506.18826v1)

Abstract: Let $R$ be a Noetherian ring of dimension $d$ and $A$ be a graded $R$-subalgebra of $R[X,1/X]$. Let $P$ be a projective module over $A$ of rank $r \geq \max{d+1,2}$ and $\v=(a,p)$ be a unimodular element of $A \oplus P$. We find an elementary automorphism $\tau$ such that $\tau (\v) = (1, 0)$. Consequently, we obtain the cancellative property of $P$. We show that $P$ splits off a free summand of rank one. When $A = R[X]$ or $R[X, 1/ X]$, the results are well-known due to the contributions by various authors.
