'Naive cotangent complex' as 1-truncation of cotangent complex
In the stacks project, there is a 'naive version' of cotangent complex $NL_{S/R}$ for a ring morphism $R\rightarrow S$, given by the chan complex $(I/I^{2}\rightarrow \Omega_{R[S]/R}\otimes_{R[S]}S)$ ...

What is the cotangent complex good for?
The cotangent complex seems to be a pretty fundamental object in algebraic geometry, but if it's treated in Hartshorne then I missed it. It seems to be even more important in derived algebraic ...

What (or how) are the new spaces of derived algebraic geometry?
I am a beginner in derived algebraic geometry and I am trying to develop some visual and geometrical intuition about derived schemes (and stacks), or more precisely about the new geometrical phenomena ...

What does the cotangent complex tell you when it takes animated inputs?
These two links: What is the cotangent complex good for? and Intuition about the cotangent complex? are quite helpful in giving intution for the cotangent complex in terms of deformations but I don't ...

When is the cotangent complex perfect?
Let $X\rightarrow S$ be a proper flat morphism of schemes.
When is the cotangent complex $L_{X/S}$ perfect ?
It is well known, that for local complete intersections the cotangent complex is perfect, ...

Is the cotangent complex sensitive to truncation?
$\DeclareMathOperator\Sym{Sym}\DeclareMathOperator\Spec{Spec}$If $V$ is a dg vector space (in positive degrees), we can view it as a derived scheme $V = \Sym V^*$. It has (co)tangent complex $V$ (and $...

Dimension of derived Artin stacks and perfect complexes
I am interested in the concept of dimension of derived and $n$-Artin stacks. Take for example the definition 4.10 of From HAG to DAG: derived moduli stacks. in which they define the dimension of a ...

Elementary (English) reference for the cotangent complex?
I'm trying to understand cotangent complexes and their role in deformation theory, and later the statement that they're somehow natural in a derived scheme/stack.
I understand that the standard ...

What is a good reference (preferably thorough) for the Derived Category of a scheme/orbifold/stack?
I've sort of circled around the idea of derived categories a few times, read a few introductory papers ("Derived Categories for the working mathematician", e.g.), and feel now that this is something ...

A construction of Kähler differentials and Illusie cotangent complex as colimit over embeddings
Let $\Bbbk$ be a field, $X$ affine scheme of finite type over $\Bbbk$. Let $\mathcal C_X$ be the category of closed embeddings of $X$ into (say affine) smooth $Y$'s of finite type over $\Bbbk$, ...
