let r be a right gf-closed ring with finite left and right gorenstein global dimension. we prove that if i is an ideal of r such that r/i is a semi-simple ring, then the gorensntein flat dimensnion of r/i as a right r-module and the gorensntein injective dimensnnion of r/i as a left r-module are identical. in particular, we show that for a simple module s over a commutative gorensntein ring r, ...

The principle “Every result in classical homological algebra should have a counterpart in Gorenstein homological algebra” was given by Henrik Holm. There is a remarkable body of evidence supporting this claim. Perhaps one of the most glaring exceptions is provided by the fact that tensor products of Gorenstein projective modules need not be Gorenstein projective, even over Gorenstein rings. So ...

Let R be a right GF-closed ring with finite left and right Gorenstein global dimension. We prove that if I is an ideal of R such that R/I is a semi-simple ring, then the Gorensntein flat dimensnion of R/I as a right R-module and the Gorensntein injective dimensnnion of R/I as a left R-module are identical. In particular, we show that for a simple module S over a commutative Gorensntein ring R, ...

In terms of the duality property of injective preenvelopes and flat precovers, we get an equivalent characterization of left Noetherian rings. For a left and right Noetherian ring R, we prove that the flat dimension of the injective envelope of any (Gorenstein) flat left R-module is at most the flat dimension of the injective envelope of RR. Then we get that the injective envelope of RR is (Gor...

Let R be a right GF -closed ring with finite left and right Gorenstein global dimension. We prove that if I is an ideal of R such that R/I is a semi-simple ring, then the Gorenstein flat dimension of R/I as a right R-module and the Gorenstein injective dimension of R/I as a left R-module are identical. In particular, we show that for a simple module S over a commutative Gorenstein ring R, the G...

Let (R,m, k) be a noetherian local ring. It is well-known that R is regular if and only if the injective dimension of k is finite. In this paper it is shown that R is Gorenstein if and only if the Gorenstein injective dimension of k is finite. On the other hand a generalized version of the so-called Bass formula is proved for finitely generated modules of finite Gorenstein injective dimension. ...

Unlike the Gorenstein projective and injective dimensions, the majority of results on the Gorenstein flat dimension have been established only over Noetherian (or coherent) rings. Naturally, one would like to generalize these results to any associative ring. In this direction, we show that the Gorenstein flat dimension is a refinement of the classical flat dimension over any ring; and we invest...

In this paper, we investigate the change of rings theorems for the Gorenstein dimensions over arbitrary rings. Namely, by the use of the notion of strongly Gorenstein modules, we extend the well-known first, second, and third change of rings theorems for the classical projective and injective dimensions to the Gorenstein projective and injective dimensions, respectively. Each of the results est...

In this paper, we prove that the global Gorenstein projective dimension of a ring R is equal to the global Gorenstein injective dimension of R, and that the global Gorenstein flat dimension of R is smaller than the common value of the terms of this equality.
