On Unimodular Rows over Polynomial Rings

On Unimodular Rows over Polynomial Rings Let A be a commutative ring and n ≤ 3 a positive integer. In this paper, we consider unimodular rows (f 1(x),..., f n (x)) over A[x]. We prove that, if the row of the leading coefficients of f i (x) is unimodular over A and a ɛ A, then there exists β ɛ E n (A[x]) such that (f 1(x),...,f n (x))β = (f 1 (a),...,f n (a)). Also, if A is a Noetherian ring with finite Krull dimension and the row of leading coefficients satisfies the same condition, then we give a bound for the length of β in terms of elementary transvections. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Algebra Colloquium Springer Journals

Abstract

Let A be a commutative ring and n ≤ 3 a positive integer. In this paper, we consider unimodular rows (f 1(x),..., f n (x)) over A[x]. We prove that, if the row of the leading coefficients of f i (x) is unimodular over A and a ɛ A, then there exists β ɛ E n (A[x]) such that (f 1(x),...,f n (x))β = (f 1 (a),...,f n (a)). Also, if A is a Noetherian ring with finite Krull dimension and the row of leading coefficients satisfies the same condition, then we give a bound for the length of β in terms of elementary transvections.
