In this survey we present the relatively new concept of \emph{approximable triangulated categories.} We will show that the definition is natural, that it leads to powerful new results, and that it throws new light on old, familiar objects.…

We introduce the notion of an exact dg category, which is a simultaneous generalization of the notions of exact category in the sense of Quillen and of pretriangulated dg category in the sense of Bondal--Kapranov. It is also a differential…

In this paper we record the formalism of algebro-geometric DG categories (in short AGCat) following a suggestion of V. Drinfeld. This formalism will be applied to ``real-world" problems in papers sequel to this one, [GRV2] and [GRV3].

This is the fourth (and last) prepublication version of a book on derived categories, that will be published by Cambridge University Press. The purpose of the book is to provide solid foundations for the theory of derived categories, and to…

Differential lambda-categories were introduced by Bucciarelli et al. as models for the simply typed version of the differential lambda-calculus of Ehrhard and Regnier. A differential lambda-category is a cartesian closed differential…

Since curved dg algebras, and modules over them, have differentials whose square is not zero, these objects have no cohomology, and there is no classical derived category. For different purposes, different notions of "derived" categories…

In [Ben13], the notion of logically distributive category has been introduced to provide a sound and complete semantics to multi-sorted first-order logical theories based on intuitionistic logic. In this note, it will be shown that the…

Differential graded (DG) commutative algebra provides powerful techniques for proving theorems about modules over commutative rings. These notes are a somewhat colloquial introduction to these techniques. In order to provide some motivation…

Curved A-infinity algebras appear in nature as deformations of dg algebras. We develop the basic theory of curved A-infinity algebras and, in particular, curved dg algebras. We investigate their link with a suitable class of dg coalgebras…

We study $N$-differential graded ($NDG$) categories and their the derived categories. First, we introduce $N$-differential modules over an $NDG$ category $\mathcal{A}$. Then we show that the category $\mathsf{C}_{Ndg}(\mathcal{A})$ of…

We give a combinatorial model structure to the category of, not necessarily conilpotent, differential graded (dg) cocommutative coalgebras and an $\infty$-category structure to the category of curved Lie algebras over an algebraically…

Combinatorial model categories were introduced by J. H. Smith as model categories which are locally presentable and cofibrantly generated. He has not published his results yet but proofs of some of them were presented by T. Beke or D.…

In this paper, we define what it means for an object in an abstract module category to be dualizable and we give a homological description of the direct limit closure of the dualizable objects. Our description recovers existing results of…

We introduce the notion of a quasi DG category, generalizing that of a DG category. To a quasi DG category satisfying certain additional conditions, we associate another quasi DG category, the quasi DG category of $C$-diagrams. We then show…

We give an elementary introduction to the theory of triangulated categories covering their axioms, homological algebra in triangulated categories, triangulated subcategories, and Verdier localization. We try to use a minimal set of axioms…

In this paper, we prove the dg affinity of formal deformation algebroid stacks over complex smooth algebraic varieties. For that purpose, we introduce the triangulated category of formal deformation modules which are cohomologically…

Given a reductive Lie algebra over the complex numbers, we introduce a family of category which generalises the BGG category $\mathcal{O}$. We also classify the simple modules for some of these categories and prove a semisimplicity result.

We consider the abelian group $PT$ generated by quasi-equivalence classes of pretriangulated DG categories with relations coming from semi-orthogonal decompositions of corresponding triangulated categories. We introduce an operation of…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a small category and let $R$ be a dg-representation of the category $\mathcal{C}$, that is, a pseudofunctor from a small category to the category of small dg $k$-categories, where $k$ is a commutative unital ring. In…
