  Abstract:
We define two new homological invariants for a finitely generated module M over a commutative Noetherian local ring R, its Buchsbaum dimension B-dimRM, and its Monomial conjecture dimension MC-dimRM. It will be shown that these new invariants have certain nice properties we have come to expect from homological dimensions. Over a Buchsbaum ring R, every finite module M has B-dimRM < ∞; conversely, if the residue field has finite B-dimension, then the ring R is Buchsbaum. Similarly R satisfies the Hochster Monomial Conjecture if and only if MC-dimRk is finite, where k is the residue field of R. MC-dimension fits between the B-dimension and restricted flat dimension Rfd of [4]. B-dimension itself is finer than CM-dimension of [7] and we have equality if CM-dimension is finite. It also satisfies an analog of the Auslander-Buchsbaum formula.
