$\infty$-categorical enhancement of $\mathsf{D}_\mathsf{B}(\mathsf{A})$
In this question, it is asked why we like to consider $\mathsf{D}_\textrm{qc}(X)$ rather than $\mathsf{D}(\mathsf{QCoh}(X)).$ Professor Cisinski answers rather convincingly that the $\infty$-...

A "lax Boardman-Vogt tensor product," or what object represents duoidal categories?
Let me preface this by saying I'm not sure what the fundamental examples should be, and perhaps that's part of my question.
The Boardman-Vogt tensor product of $\infty$-operads $\mathcal{O}$ and $\...
