The localisation long exact sequence in K-theory over an arbitrary base

I do not have the reference with me right now, but I think the localization sequence for K-theory over general base was handled in: R. W. Thomason, T. Trobaugh, Higher algebraic K-theory of schemes …

Maps between K-groups induced by rings homomorphism

Let $f: R\to S$ be a map between two commutative Noetherian rings. Let $G_0(R)=K_0(mod R)$ be the Grothendieck group of finite generated modules over $R$. It means $G_0(R)$ is the quotient of the free …

When can we cancel vector bundles from tensor products?

Let $E,F,G$ be algebraic vector bundles over $\mathbb P_{\mathbb C}^n$. My general question is: Assume $E\otimes G \cong F\otimes G$, under what conditions can one conclude that $E\cong F$? Some ea …

Zero divisor conjecture and idempotent conjecture

Clearly one implies the other as $x^2=x$ means $x(x-1)=0$. I doubt they are known to be equivalent since the sources I found: the K-theory handbook and Alain Valette survey (see Conjecture 2) listed …

Short exact sequences every mathematician should know

Given a finitely generated module $M$ over a commutative Noetherian ring $R$, there is a short exact sequence $$0\to M_1 \to R^n \to M\to 0$$ where you map $1$ in each $R$ to a generator of $M$ and $M …
