Properness and simplicial resolutions for the model category dgCat

Category Theory 2020-09-24 v5

Abstract

We provide proofs of two properties of the model category dgCat of dg-categories (with the Morita or Dwyer-Kan model structure): When working over a field the category dgCat is left proper. Natural simplicial resolutions in dgCat are given by dg-categories of Maurer-Cartan elements.
