The basic element theorem for fully bounded rings and some applications
... However, Rx 5 R, and so x is not unimodular. Chakravarti showed in [2] how the previous definition should be modified to handle FBN rings. To deal with any right and left noetherian ring, a different definition is needed. ...
In this paper we propose a notion of basic element for noncommutative noetherian rings and derive the corresponding Basic Element Theorem as in (D. Eisenbud and E. G. Evans Jr., Generating modules efficiently: Theorems from algebraic K-theory, J. Algebra27 (1973), 278–305). As corollaries to this theorem we obtain a number of results of Stafford, such as his generalizations of Serre's Splitting-Off Theorem and Bass's Cancellation Theorem.
The well-known Forster-Swan theorem, and the stable version of this result given by Eisenbud and Evans, give a bound on the number of generators of a module over a commutative ring in terms of local data. In this paper we generalise these results to arbitrary Noetherian rings. As an application we prove versions of Serre's Theorem and the Cancellation Theorem over such rings.
