Abstract

Quasi-projective dimension was introduced by Gheibi, Jorgensen and Takahashi to generalize the Auslander-Buchsbaum formula and the depth formula in commutative algebra. In this paper, we establish some basic properties of quasi-projective dimensions of objects in abelian categories. Analogous to global dimension of rings, we also introduce the concept of quasi-global dimension for left Noetherian rings, and then compare quasi-global dimension with global dimension for a class of Nakayama algebras. This provides new examples of finite-dimensional algebras with finite quasi-global dimensions but infinite global dimensions.
