The authors investigate properties of the algebraic invariants \(\text{silf\,}\mathbb ZG\) and \(\text{sfli\,}\mathbb ZG\) and related invariants, where \(\mathbb ZG\) is the integral group ring of the group \(G\), \(\text{sfli\,}\mathbb ZG\) is the supremum of the flat lengths of injective \(\mathbb ZG\)-modules and \(\text{silf\,}\mathbb ZG\) is the supremum of the injective lengths of flat \(\mathbb ZG\)-modules. One of their results is that for any group \(G\), \(\text{sfli\,}\mathbb ZG\) equals the supremum of the injective lengths of the projective \(\mathbb ZG\)-modules. Using this they show that \(\text{sfli\,}\mathbb ZG\) is less than or equal to \(\text{silf\,}\mathbb ZG\), for any group \(G\). They investigate cases for which \(\text{sfli\,}\mathbb ZG\) finite implies \(\text{silf\,}\mathbb ZG\) finite and they also show that the Gorenstein flat dimension of the trivial \(\mathbb ZG\)-module \(\mathbb Z\) is related to these algebraic invariants.
