Let R be a ring with unit, and e be an idem potent in R such that (1 - e)Re = 0. In this note we shall explore the relationships between homological properties of R and those of its subring eRe.

Examples of such rings are abundant, the most common being perhaps the ring R of all two-by-two upper triangular matrices over a field, where—
