Abstract
The weak global dimension of a right coherent ring with left Krull dimension α ≥ 1 is found to be the supremum of the weak dimensions of the β-critical cyclic modules, where β < α. If, in addition, the mapping I → assl gives a bijection between isomorphism classes on injective left R-modules and prime ideals of R, then the weak global dimension of R is the supremum of the weak dimensions of the simple left R-modules. These results are used to compute the left homological dimension of a right coherent, left noetherian ring. Some analogues of our results are also given for rings with Gabriel dimension.
