Conjecture on cancellation for prime algebras of low center or dimension three

Let char(k)=0\operatorname{char}(\operatorname{\Bbbk})=0, and let AA be a noetherian finitely generated prime algebra.

Cancellation conjecture.

  1. If GKdim(Z(A))1\operatorname{GKdim}(Z(A))\leq 1, then AA is cancellative.
  2. If GKdim(A)=3\operatorname{GKdim}(A)=3 and AA is not PI, then AA is cancellative.

These assertions propose broad cancellation criteria for noncommutative algebras, extending the preceding results for particular classes of AS-regular and PI algebras. Their resolution is not specified in the source.
