We observe that this notion of gluing is a particular case of a general categorical construction (used also by Kontsevich and Rosenberg to define \"noncommutative schemes\"). We prove a conjecture of Kazhdan which says that the D-module counterpart of the Kazhdan-Laumon gluing construction produces a category equivalent to modules over the ring $\\mathcal D$ of global differential operators on the basic affine space. As an application we show that $\\mathcal D$ is Noetherian, and has finite injective dimension as a module over itself.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2001-04-10T16:31:50.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "basic affine space", "abelian categories", "finite chevalley groups", "global differential operators", "kazhdan-laumon gluing construction produces" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2001math......4114B" } } }
