Dec 13, 2020 at 13:57 comment added Reid Barton Or more simply, $\mathsf{dgMod}_C$ as an object of $\mathsf{dgCat}$ doesn't commute with colimits in $C$ in any sense because, for example, if $C$ is the initial dg-category, $\mathsf{dgMod}_C$ is not empty!
Dec 13, 2020 at 4:39 comment added Reid Barton The tensor product in section 4 does not correspond to the tensor product of presentable ∞-categories which appears in formulas like $\mathsf{dgMod}_C \otimes^L \mathsf{dgMod}_D = \mathsf{dgMod}_{C \otimes^L D}$. It is closer to the ordinary product of categories. A general $C \otimes^L D$-module isn't built out of a $C$-module and a $D$-module; you need to allow formation of colimits as well.

fixed definition of fibration
Dec 13, 2020 at 2:28 comment added Stahl @DmitriPavlov Thanks for all your help here. I'll follow the outline you've provided!

Dec 13, 2020 at 2:18 comment added Dmitri Pavlov @Stahl: For your cited fact, I suggest to observe first that dgCat_C is homotopy cocontinuous in C. Then the problem for dg-algebras reduces to the case C=D=k, the base ring, which can be shown directly. Nothing in this argument needs ∞-categories.
Dec 13, 2020 at 1:38 comment added Stahl @ReidBarton Toën claims on page 10 of the paper I mentioned that Tabuada has shown that there is a model structure on $\mathsf{dgCat}$ with fibrations as defined above and whose weak equivalences are the quasi-equivalences. In section 4, Toën defines the tensor and derived tensor product of two dg-categories by $C\otimes^L D:=Q(C)\otimes D,$ where $Q:\mathsf{dgCat}\to\mathsf{dgCat}$ is a cofibrant replacement functor for this model structure which acts as the identity on objects. Perhaps I'm missing something, but nowhere have I seen a requirement that the dg-categories be cocomplete.

Dec 13, 2020 at 0:18 comment added Reid Barton I'm skeptical. Don't you need to be in a model category (or 2-category) of cocomplete dg-categories for these tensor products to even make sense? In this context the question makes more sense, but then you also need to specify what the model structure is.

added original motivation
Dec 12, 2020 at 22:13 comment added Stahl @Dmitri I'm trying to find a more "elementary" (non-$\infty$-categorical) proof that $\mathsf{dgMod}_C\otimes^L\mathsf{dgMod}_{D}\simeq\mathsf{dgMod}_{C\otimes^L D}$, at least for $C$ and $D$ dg-algebras (I asked a different question about this and got a nice answer, but I wanted to do it without those techniques as well). However, the proof sketch I came up with required this result.
Dec 12, 2020 at 18:47 comment added Dmitri Pavlov Why do you want categories of dg-modules to be cofibrant in the first place? What is the motivation behind wanting such a property? I suspect we may have an XY problem here.

Dec 7, 2020 at 11:12 comment added Reid Barton Is a dg-category equivalent (as an enriched category) to a cofibrant one again cofibrant? I'm not sure the main question makes much sense, unless the answer is "no". A priori it should depend on the choice of the category Set up to isomorphism, and not just up to equivalence.

Dec 7, 2020 at 7:23 comment added Tim Porter You seem to have defined 'quasi-fully faithful ' twice. i suspect the second was intended to be the definition of 'quasi-essentially surjective'!
