Abstract: In this note, we prove that if Lambda is an Artin algebra with a simple module S of finite projective dimension, then the finiteness of the finitistic dimension of Lambda implies that of (1e)Lambda(1e) where e is the primitive idempotent supporting S. We derive some consequences of this. In particular, we recover a result of Green-Solberg-Psaroudakis: if Lambda is the quotient of a path algebra by an admissible ideal I whose defining relations do not involve a certain arrow alpha, then the finitistic dimension of Lambda is finite if and only if the finitistic dimension of Lambda/LambdaalphaLambda is finite.
