Matrix factorizations (in the graded case) give a triangulated category. I would imagine that there should be an underlying dg-category. Is there such a definition, and if so, where can I find it in the literature?

  • $\begingroup$ No, I haven't, will try to make sense of it. Is there a place there that I should be specifically focusing on? $\endgroup$ May 14, 2015 at 10:49
  • $\begingroup$ I thought Preygel's thesis was another reference for this, but I guess it's more $\infty$ than dg. $\endgroup$ May 14, 2015 at 14:36

    $\begingroup$ @Meow Yes, this looks like what I was asking about. Now, if I could only remember why ... :) $\endgroup$ Sep 2, 2021 at 20:52

Definition 2.7 of "A Category of Kernels for Equivariant Factorizations, II: Further Implications" by Ballard-Favero-Katzarkov might be what you are looking for: http://arxiv.org/pdf/1310.2656.pdf.

Their setup is quite general; to get graded matrix factorizations of a degree $d$ element $f$ of a $\mathbb{Z}$-graded commutative algebra $R$ over a field $k$ from their definition, take $\mathcal{A}$ to be $\operatorname{gr-mod}-R$, $\Phi$ to be grading shift $d$ times, and $w$ to be multiplication by $f$.
