Abstract

We prove that any spectrum is equivalent to the nonconnective K-theory of a stable \infty-category. We use these results to construct a stable \infty-category C\mathcal{C} with a bounded t-structure such that K(C)\operatorname{K}(\mathcal{C}) is not equivalent to K(C)\operatorname{K}(\mathcal{C}^\heartsuit), disproving a conjecture of Antieau, Gepner, and Heller.
