|Title:||Grothendieck-Witt groups and projective modules|
|Seminar:||Algebra and Number Theory Seminar|
|Speaker:||Jean Fasel, Ludwig Maximilian Universitaet Muenchen (LMU)|
|We will present new developments in the theory of Grothendieck-Witt groups (aka Hermitian K-theory), and then give some nice applications. In particular, we will sketch a proof of Suslin's conjecture that stably free modules of rank d-1 over a smooth affine algebra of dimension d over an algebraically closed field are free.|
