Concrete examples of derived categories

What examples of abelian categories $\mathcal{A}$ are there such that the derived category $\mathcal{D}(\mathcal{A})$ can be described concretely? For example, is there a concrete way of describing $\...

Reconstruction of commutative differential graded algebras

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$. Let $A,B$ be commutative differential graded algebras (cdga) over $k$ such that $H^{i}(A)=H^{i}(B) =0 \ (i>0)$. Here, differentials ...

Are eigenvalues preserved under derived equivalence?

Let $A$ and $B$ be finite dimensional algebras such that $A$ and $B$ are derived equivalent. Denote by $C_A$ (resp. $C_B$) the Cartan matrix of $A$ (resp. $B$). Then does the set of eigenvalues of $...

Pseudo-coherent complexes over sheaves of non-commutative rings

I am posing a question on derived categories to which I was not able to find an answer anywhere in the literature. I would appreciate any answer, hint or suggestion. Assume that $\mathcal{R}_X$ is a ...

What is the smallest group for which Broué's abelian defect group conjecture has not yet been verified?

Let $G$ be a finite group. Let $p$ be a prime dividing $|G|$. Let $k:=\overline{\mathbb{F}_p}$. Let $b$ be a $p$-block of $kG$ with abelian defect group $D$. Let $H:=N_G(D)$. Let $c$ be the Brauer ...

Rickard's strengthening of Broué's abelian defect group conjecture and the lifting of some equivalences up to splendid derived equivalences

Let $G$ be a finite group. Let $p$ be a prime dividing $|G|$. Let $K:=\overline{\mathbb{F}_p}$. Let $b$ be a $p$-block of $G$ with abelian defect group $D$. Let $H:=N_G(D)$. Let $c$ be the Brauer ...

Smallness condition for augmented algebras

I'm not sure this question is research level question. Sorry in advance. Hypothesis $k$ is a commutative ring. $A$ is an augmented $k$-algebra. $A^e$ is defined as the $k$-algebra $A\otimes_{k}A^{op}$...

Skew differential graded algebra

A sigma, or skew, derivation is a natural generalisation of the notion of derivation depending on an algebra automorphism $\sigma$ which when equal to $id = \sigma$ reduces to the usual notion of a ...

Balanced dualizing complexes according to A. Yekutieli

I am reading A. Yekutieli's original article on dualizing complexes for noncommutative algebras and I found a problem I cannot solve. First, some background. We start with a field $k$ and a ...

Example of tensor category with non-simple unit $J\to \mathbb{1} \to Q$ and suitably extension $Q\to M\to J$

Edit: Thanx very much to Neil Strickland for quickly explaining to us that the following cannot be realized over finite commutative $\mathbb{C}$-algebras, as I had originally asked. I know that there ...

Has anyone seen this construction of dg algebras?

Let $A$ be an associative algebra, $M$ a right $A$-module. Suppose we are given an $A$-module homomorphism $M \to A$. Then we can make $M$ itself into an associative algebra via the multiplication $$ ...

Serre duality graded singularity category

Let $R$ be a local Gorenstein ring of Krull dimension $d$ with an isolated singularity. Defined $D_{sing}(R)$ as the Verdier quotient $D^b(R)/Perf(R)$). Then, a famous result of Auslander says that ...

Restriction of scalars from an Azumaya algebra and preservation of perfect/compact objects of the derived categories

An Azumaya variety over a field is by definition a pair $(X,\mathcal A_X)$, where $X$ is an algebraic variety of finite type over that field and $\mathcal A_X$ is a sheaf of Azumaya algebras, namely ...

flatness and derived completion

Let $A$ be a local ring of maximal ideal $\mathfrak{m}$. Let $\hat{A}$ be its completion. If $A$ is noetherian , then we know that $A\rightarrow\hat{A}$ is faithfully flat. If $A$ is not noetherian, ...

Equivariant Formality

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\mathcal{A}$ be a $dg$-algebra. Assume $G$ acts on $\mathcal{A}$, i.e. there exists a homomorphism $G\to {\rm Aut}_{dg}(\mathcal{A})$. Assume further there exists a $dg$...

Formal DG-algebras

Sorry for this question but I really have difficulties with model categories. Usually a $dg$-algebra $A$ is called formal, if there exists a $dg$-algebra $B$ and quasi-isomorphisms $$A\leftarrow B\to ...

injective dimension of dualizing complex

Let $R$ be a balanced dualizing complex of a Noetherian connected graded algebras $A$. Dose one always have $\text{id}_A R = \text{id}_{A^{op}} R$? Thanks a lot.

Generators of the derived category

For a ring $R$, which is a finite-dimensional algebra over a field, the category of finite-dimensional, projective, right $R$-modules, $\mathcal{P}_R$ is generated by the indecomposable projective ...
