Oct 22, 2016 at 11:19 comment added Denis Nardin @Sasha I am silently using the fact that $D^b(X)$ has a natural enhancement as a stable $\infty$-category. Sorry I didn't think it was worth mentioning (especially since the particular enhancement, you work with does not matter).
Oct 22, 2016 at 4:18 comment added Sasha @DenisNardin: And how do you define a homotopy colimit over such a category in a triangulated category? All I know is how to define a homotopy colimit over naturals (as a cone of a morphism between infinite direct sum, as in the telescope construction), and my impression was that for more complicated categories one has to use enhancements.
Oct 22, 2016 at 0:39 comment added Denis Nardin @Sasha It is very silly: it is just the homotopy colimit indexed on the category of perfect complexes mapping to $C$. Since the category of perfect complexes is small, this makes sense.
Oct 21, 2016 at 21:23 comment added Sasha @DenisNardin: What is the CANONICAL way to represent a bounded complex as a homotopy colimit of perfect complexes?

Oct 21, 2016 at 18:24 comment added Denis Nardin Perfect complexes are not closed under (homotopy) colimits nor (homotopy) limits, so there can be neither a left nor a right adjoint to the inclusion. The nearest thing I can think of is understanding Db(X) as "things assembled from perfect complexes", since every object is (canonically) a (homotopy) colimit of perfect complexes
