Bass–Quillen conjecture on projective modules over polynomial rings

About 12 years old · traced to

Let AA be a regular ring of finite Krull dimension, and let n≥1n\ge 1. A finitely generated projective module over A[x1,…,xn]A[x_1,\ldots,x_n] is extended from AA if it is obtained from a finitely generated projective AA-module by extension of scalars along A→A[x1,…,xn]A\to A[x_1,\ldots,x_n]. Bass–Quillen conjecture. Every finitely generated projective module over A[x1,…,xn]A[x_1,\ldots,x_n] is extended from AA for any n≥1n\ge 1. This is the classical Bass–Quillen conjecture on homotopy invariance for finitely generated projective modules; the dimension-22 case is known in the setting described in the paper, while the conjecture in full generality remains open.
