It is defined by rep.dim(R) = inf{gl.dim(End_R(M)) | M is a generator-cogenerator}. </p> <p>In the ADE case the preprojective algebra of the affine dynkin quiver arises this way, and it has finite global dimension.</p> <p>But you are dropping the condition that M be a generator-cogenerator.</p> <p>Here is a very general result of Van den Bergh: Assume X is separated. Then there exists a perfect complex E such that D(Qcoh X) is equivalent to D(A) where A is the DG-algebra RHom_X(E,E).</p> <p>Here is another article which is highly related: D. Orlov, Remarks on generators and dimensions of triangulated categories.</p>
