The main purpose of this article is to present some applications of the notion of Gorenstein injective dimension of complexes over an associative ring. Among the applications, we give some new characterizations of Iwanaga-Gorenstein rings. In particular, we show that an associative ring R is Iwanaga-Gorenstein if and only if the class of complexes of Gorenstein injective dimension less than or equal to zero and the class of complexes of finite projective dimension are orthogonal complement of each other with respect to the 'Ext' functor.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
