Abstract:
Recent work of Artin, Small, and Zhang extends Grothendieck's classical commutative algebra result on generic freeness to a large family of non-commutative algebras. Over such an algebra, any finitely-generated module becomes free after localization at a suitable central element. In this paper, a construction is given of primitive noetherian algebras, finitely generated over the integers or over algebraic closures of finite fields, such that the faithful, simple modules don't satisfy such a freeness condition. These algebras also fail to satisfy a non-commutative version of the Nullstellensatz.
