HOMOLOGICAL TRANSCENDENCE DEGREE
HOMOLOGICAL TRANSCENDENCE DEGREE
Let $D$ be a division algebra over a base field $k$. The homological transcendence degree of $D$, denoted by $\text{Htr}\; D$, is defined to be the injective dimension of the algebra $D \otimes_k D^{\circ}$. We show that $\text{Htr}$ has several useful properties which the classical transcendence degree has. We extend …
