Abstract
AbstractLet A be an affine algebra of dimension n over an algebraically closed field k with 1/n! ∈ k. Let P be a projective A-module of rank n − 1. Then, it is an open question due to N. Mohan Kumar, whether P is cancellative. We prove the following results:(i) If A = R[T,T−1], then P is cancellative.(ii) If A = R[T,1/f] or A = R[T,f1/f,…,fr/f], where f(T) is a monic polynomial and f,f1,…,fr is R[T]-regular sequence, then An−1 is cancellative. Further, if k = p, then P is cancellative.
