A bimodule approach to dominant dimension

We show that a finite dimensional algebra $A$ has dominant dimension at least $n \geq 2$ if and only if the regular bimodule $A$ is $n$-torsionfree if and only if $A \cong Ω^{n}(\text{Tr}(Ω^{n-2}(V)))$ as $A$-bimodules, where $V=\text{Hom}_A(D(A),A)$ is the canonical $A$-bimodule in the sense of \cite{FKY}. We apply this to give new formulas for the Hochschild homology and cohomology for algebras with dominant dimension at least two and show a new relation between the first Tachikawa conjecture, the Nakayama conjecture and Gorenstein homological algebra.
