Abstract
Let A be an algebra which is a direct limit of module finite algebras over a commutative ring R with 1. Let I, J be two-sided ideals of A, GLn(A, I) the principal congruence subgroup of level I in GLn(A), and En(A, I) the relative elementary subgroup of level I. Using Bak's localization-patching method, we prove the commutator formula.
