RT journal article T1 The Realization Problem for finitely generated refinement monoids A1 Ara, Pere A1 Bosa, Joan A1 Pardo Espino, Enrique A2 Matemáticas K1 von Neumann regular ring K1 refinement monoid K1 realization problem K1 universal localization AB We show that every finitely generated conical refinement monoid can be represented as the monoid V(R) of isomorphism classes of finitely generated projective modules over a von Neumann regular ring R. To this end, we use the representation of these monoids provided by adaptable separated graphs. Given an adaptable separated graph (E, C) and a field K, we build a von Neumann regular K-algebra Q_K(E,C) and show that there is a natural isomorphism between the separated graph monoid M(E,C) and the monoid V(Q_K(E,C)).
