We fix throughout a commutative ring K. Let A be a finitely presented K-algebra. Suppose that, for each maximal ideal m of K, the K,,,-algebra A,,, is isomorphic to a polynomial K,,-algebra. Then A is isomorphic to the symmetric algebra S (P) of a finitely generated projective K-module P. This result, to which the title refers, is contained in Theorem (4.4) below. Geometrically it asserts that every locally trivial fibre space over spec (K) with affine space fibres arises from a vector bundle. The theorem is trivial if A is locally a polynomial algebra in one variable? The only other case previously known to us is the case, treated in [W], when K is a principal ideal domain. The theorem solves a problem posed in [EH] p. 67, and in [W], w 6.2The paper [ES] contains many results on locally polynomial algebras, but without our finite presentability assumption. The example (3.15) of [ES] furnishes a N-algebra A which is a noetherian UFD, locally a polynomial ring in one variable over Z, yet not finitely generated over~, and, in particular, not the symmetric algebra of any 7Z-module.
