On classes defining a homological dimension
  A class $\mathcal F$ of objects of an abelian category $\mathcal A$ is said to define a \emph{homological dimension} if for any object in $\mathcal A$ the length of any $\mathcal F$-resolution is uniquely determined. In the present paper we investigate classes satisfying this property.
