Abstract
We shall take a new look at the old problem of computing homological dimension of a soluble group and establish some new supplement and complement theorems along the way. The homological dimension of a soluble group is predicted to equal the Hirsch length whenever it is finite. However this result has only been proved in characteristic zero when it is a theorem of Stammbach. Some interesting issues arise in positive characteristic.
