Relative Gorenstein dimensions over triangular matrix rings

Let $A$ and $B$ be rings, $U$ a $(B,A)$-bimodule and $T=\begin{pmatrix} A&0\\U&B \end{pmatrix}$ the triangular matrix ring. In this paper, several notions in relative Gorenstein algebra over a triangular matrix ring are investigated. We first study how to construct w-tilting (tilting, semidualizing) over $T$ using the corresponding ones over $A$ and $B$. We show that when $U$ is relative (weakly) compatible we are able to describe the structure of $G_C$-projective modules over $T$. As an application, we study when a morphism in $T$-Mod has a special $G_CP(T)$-precover and when the class $G_CP(T)$ is a special precovering class. In addition, we study the relative global dimension of $T$. In some cases, we show that it can be computed from the relative global dimensions of $A$ and $B$. We end the paper with a counterexample to a result that characterizes when a $T$-module has a finite projective dimension.
