Unimodular elements and a free rank-one summand #
This file contains the unconditional module-theoretic splitting associated to a unimodular element. It uses no rank, Ore, simplicity, or finiteness hypothesis.
An element of a left module is unimodular if a left-linear functional
takes it to 1.

The projection onto the kernel of a functional which is normalized at
x.

Instances For
The cyclic submodule generated by a unimodular element is a free
rank-one module. The target is the actual range, so no commutativity or
centrality assumption on R is hidden in the statement.
The kernel of a split functional is a direct summand of its domain. In particular, if the domain is projective then this kernel is projective.
