Let R be an associative ring with 1, and let I be a nilpotent two-sided ideal of R. Assume further that there exists z P ZR such that zY z 2 À 1 P R Ã . Let m P N with m ! 3. In this paper we describe all liftings of the elementary group E m RaI to the general linear group GL m R, i.e. all splittings of the natural projection E m R M m I 3 E m RaI .
