Homological dimensions refer to a way of measuring the 'size' or complexity of objects in homological algebra, particularly regarding their projective, injective, or flat resolutions. These dimensions help in understanding how objects relate to each other and their behavior under various functors. In the context of sheaf operations and derived functors, they play a crucial role in determining the effectiveness of these operations and the derived functor's ability to capture homological properties.
