Verdier quotients of homotopy categories

We study Verdier quotients of diverse homotopy categories of a full additive subcategory $\mathcal E$ of an abelian category. In particular, we consider the categories $K^{x,y}({\mathcal E})$ for $x\in\{\infty, +,-,b\}$, and $y\in\{\emptyset,b,+,-,\infty\}$ the homotopy categories of left, right, unbounded complexes with homology being $0$, bounded, left or right bounded, or unbounded. Inclusion of these categories give a partially ordered set, and we study localisation sequences or recollement diagrams between the Verdier quotients, and prove that many quotients lead to equivalent categories.
