Finite projective dimension and the graded Cartan map #
A finitely generated graded module over a left Noetherian graded algebra has a finite resolution by finitely generated graded projectives whenever its underlying module has finite projective dimension. The resolution has length at most the underlying projective-dimension bound. Finite graded free surjections retain the internal grading at every step; Noetherianity keeps the syzygies finitely generated, and ungraded dimension shifting makes the last syzygy projective.
Thus a pointwise finite projective-dimension hypothesis on the underlying modules suffices for
the graded Cartan isomorphism over ℤ[q,q⁻¹]. No uniform bound, nonnegative grading, or
semisimplicity of the degree-zero algebra is required.

A projective-dimension bound on the underlying module is realized by a finite resolution with finitely generated graded-projective terms and the same length bound.
Pointwise finite projective dimension of the underlying finite graded modules supplies the finite graded-resolution hypothesis of the graded Cartan comparison theorem.
The graded Cartan map is bijective when the underlying finite graded modules have finite projective dimension over the left Noetherian algebra. Finite ungraded global dimension suffices; no separate bound on graded projective dimension is assumed.
