Unrelativized Standard Commutator Formula

详细

In the present note, which is a marginalia to the previous papers by Roozbeh Hazrat, Alexei Stepanov, Zuhong Zhang, and the author, I observe that for any ideals A,B≤R of a commutative ring R and all n ≥ 3 the birelative standard commutator formula also holds in the unrelativized form, as [E(n,A),GL(n,B)] = [E(n,A),E(n,B)] and discuss some obvious corollaries thereof.
