Abstract

It is well known that "Fukaya category" is in fact an AA_{\infty}-pre-category in sense of Kontsevich and Soibelman \cite{KS}. The reason is that in general the morphism spaces are defined only for transversal pairs of Lagrangians, and higher products are defined only for transversal sequences of Lagrangians. In \cite{KS} it is conjectured that for any graded commutative ring k,k, quasi-equivalence classes of AA_{\infty}-pre-categories over kk are in bijection with quasi-equivalence classes of AA_{\infty}-categories over kk with strict (or weak) identity morphisms. In this paper we prove this conjecture for essentially small AA_{\infty}-(pre-)categories, in the case when kk is a field. In particular, it follows that we can replace Fukaya AA_{\infty}-pre-category with a quasi-equivalent actual AA_{\infty}-category. We also present natural construction of pre-triangulated envelope in the framework of AA_{\infty}-pre-categories. We prove its invariance under quasi-equivalences.
