Abstract

In this article, an analog of the Quillen–Suslin’s local-global principle was established for the elementary subgroup of the general quadratic group and the general Hermitian group. It is shown that unstable K1-groups of the general Hermitian groups over module finite rings are nilpotent-by-Abelian. This generalizes earlier results by A. Bak, R. Hazrat, and N. Vavilov.
