Related papers: An informal introduction to dg categories
Keller introduced a notion of quotient of a differential graded category modulo a full differential graded subcategory which agrees with Verdier's notion of quotient of a triangulated category modulo a triangulated subcategory. This work is…
We give an informal introduction to model categories, and treat three important examples in some details: the category of small categories, the category of dg algebras, and the category of small dg categories.
Differential graded categories enhance our understanding of triangulated categories appearing in algebra and geometry. In this survey, we review their foundations and report on recent work by Drinfeld, Dugger-Shipley, ..., Toen and…
These notes are meant to provide a rapid introduction to triangulated categories. We start with the definition of an additive category and end with a glimps of tilting theory. Some exercises are included.
Derived categories were invented by Grothendieck and Verdier around 1960, not very long after the "old" homological algebra (of derived functors between abelian categories) was established. This "new" homological algebra, of derived…
The category of unital (unbounded) dg cocommutative coalgebras over a field of characteristic zero is provided with a structure of simplicial closed model category. This generalizes the model structure defined by Quillen in 1969 for…
We introduce a bicategory that refines the localization of the category of dg categories with respect to quasi-equivalences and investigate its properties via formal category theory. Concretely, we first introduce the bicategory of dg…
Let $A$ be a graded algebra. It is shown that the derived category of dg modules over $A$ (viewed as a dg algebra with trivial differential) is a triangulated hull of a certain orbit category of the derived category of graded $A$-modules.…
Bondal-Kapranov's notion of enhanced triangulated categories behaves well in the framework of localization theory, in the sense that the Verdier quotient of triangulated categories can be lifted to the Drinfeld dg quotient of…
Reflexive dg categories were introduced by Kuznetsov and Shinder to abstract the duality between bounded and perfect derived categories. In particular this duality relates their Hochschild cohomologies, autoequivalence groups, and…
In this short note, we study dg categories with homotopy kernels, whose homotopy categories are known to admit a natural left triangulated structure. Prototypical examples of such dg categories arise as dg quotients of exact dg categories.…
We prove that, under mild assumptions, the $Q$-shaped derived categories introduced by Holm and J{\o}rgensen are equivalent to derived categories of differential graded bimodules over differential graded categories. This yields new derived…
In this paper, we try to answer the following question: given a modular tensor category $\A$ with an action of a compact group $G$, is it possible to describe in a suitable sense the ``quotient'' category $\A/G$? We give a full answer in…
Triangulated categories arising in algebra can often be described as the homotopy category of a pretriangulated dg-category, a category enriched in chain complexes with a natural notion of shifts and cones that is accessible with all the…
This paper focuses on defining an analog of differential-graded triangular matrix algebra in the context of differential-graded categories. Given two dg-categories $\mathcal{U}$ and $\mathcal{T}$ and $M \in \text{DgMod}(\mathcal{U} \otimes…
The notion of one-sided localization in the homotopy invariant context is developed for dg algebras and dg categories. Applications include a simple construction of derived localization of dg algebras and dg categories, and a refinement of…
We construct an "almost involution" assigning a new DG-category to a given one, and use this construction to recover, say, the abelian category of graded modules over the graded ring $R^*$ from the DG-category of DG-modules over a DG-ring…
The category of all modules over a reductive complex Lie algebra is wild, and therefore it is useful to study full subcategories. For instance, Bernstein, Gelfand and Gelfand introduced a category of modules which provides a natural setting…
It is becoming increasingly difficult for geometers and even physicists to avoid papers containing phrases like `triangulated category', not to mention derived functors. I will give some motivation for such things from algebraic geometry,…
We introduce the notion of exact dg category, which provides a differential graded enhancement of Nakaoka--Palu's notion of extriangulated category. We give a definition in complete analogy with Quillen's but where the category of…
