Global dimension of a string algebra

arXiv:2607.11552

summary

The paper provides a combinatorial description of the global dimension of string algebras and gives a precise condition that determines when this global dimension is infinite.

Abstract

In this paper, we characterize the global dimension of a string algebra by using combinatorial methods. Moreover, we establish a necessary and sufficient condition for when the global dimension of a string algebra is infinite.
