Bass's conjecture for commutative integral domains

From papers

Let RR be a commutative integral domain and GG a group. For gGg\in G, write HSRG(P)(g)\operatorname{HS}_{RG}(P)(g) for the value at the conjugacy class (g)(g) of the Hattori–Stallings rank of a finitely generated projective RGRG-module PP. Bass's conjecture. If g|g| is infinite, or if g|g| is finite and not invertible in RR, then

HSRG(P)(g)=0.\operatorname{HS}_{RG}(P)(g)=0.

This conjecture concerns the support of Hattori–Stallings ranks and has topological consequences, including statements about homotopy idempotents and Euler characteristics. It is known in several cases, such as certain linear groups and groups of bounded cohomological dimension, but remains open in general.
