(n,m)-Strongly Gorenstein Projective Modules

This paper is a continuation of the papers J. Pure Appl. Algebra, 210 (2007), 437--445 and J. Algebra Appl., 8 (2009), 219--227. Namely, we introduce and study a doubly filtered set of classes of modules of finite Gorenstein projective dimension, which are called $(n,m)$-strongly Gorenstein projective ($(n,m)$-SG-projective for short) for integers $n\geq 1$ and $m\geq 0$. We are mainly interested in studying syzygies of these modules. As consequences, we show that a module $M$ has Gorenstein projective dimension at most $m$ if and only if $M\oplus G$ is $(1,m)$-SG-projective for some Gorenstein projective module $G$. And, over rings of finite left finitistic flat dimension, that a module of finite Gorenstein projective dimension has finite projective dimension if and only if it has finite flat dimension.
