Free summands of stably free modules

Let R be a commutative ring. One may ask when a general R-module P that satisfies $P \oplus R \cong R^n$ has a free summand of a given rank. M. Raynaud translated this question into one about sections of certain maps between Stiefel varieties: if $V_r(\mathbb {A}^n)$ denotes the variet...
