NOTE Throughout these notes, the lower case German "p" has been consistently typed as a lower case Roman "y". This results in some rather unusual notation , but should not cause any difficulty if the reader is prepared for it. The lower case German "c" is also indistinguishable from the lower case Greek tau, but again no real confusion should result.

Introduction
Let R be a ring.
Then KO(R) is the abelian group given by
generators [p] where P is a finitely generated projective R module, with relations [p]
=
[PI] + [pIt] whenever 0
P"
P
P" --. 0
is an exact sequence of finitely generated projective R modules. KO is a covariant functor from rings to abelian groups. f: R-.R', then KO(f'): KO(R) ...... KO(R') by [P] ....
If IfR
is left noetherian, then GO(R) is the abelian group with generators [M] where M is a finitely generated left R module with relations [M] •
[M I] + [M"] whenever 0 .... M I .-.... M __ M" - - 0 is an exact se-
quence of finitely generated left R modules. since the tensor product
will preserve all the relations only
when R' is flat as a right R module. given by
GO is not a functor
There is a map KO(R) -..GO(R)
This map is called the Cartan
