dg-natural transformation between FM functors and Hom between kernels
The question is related to Morphism between Fourier-Mukai functors implies the morphism between kernels?

Perfect dg-modules under faithfully flat extension
Let $k \subseteq \bar{k}$ be an extension of fields (Orlov in the reference below seems to indicate the same thing will hold for faithfully flat maps but the case of fields is enough for me).
On page ...

Bound on Hochschild dimension of a dg-algebra
Consider a dg-algebra $A$, is there any way I can estimate the Hochschild dimension, or global dimension of $A$?
More precisely the algebra that I am considering is the Endomorphism dg-algebra $\...

Who introduced the abstract definition of a DGA?
Differential graded algebras, or DGAs, are a basic object of study in many areas of modern mathematics. While they were present (implicitly at least) since the start of modern differential geometry, I ...

detecting a semi-free module from its bar-resolution
Let $A$ be a DG-algebra over a field (say $k$). A DG-module $M$ over $A$ is said to be semi-free if it admits an exhaustive filtration $0 = M_0 \subset M_1 \subset \ldots \subset M_p = M$ such that ...

De Rham and Koszul complexes
Consider the algebraic de Rham complex of the $n$-dimensional plane: this is merely
$$\ldots\rightarrow Sym(V^*)\otimes\bigwedge^{k}V^*\rightarrow Sym(V^*)\otimes\bigwedge^{k+1}V^*\rightarrow\ldots
$$...

Where does one go to learn about DG-algebras?
The theory of differential graded algebras (in char 0) and their modules has numerous applications in rational homotopy theory as well as algebraic geometry.
I'm looking for a reasonably complete ...

Resolutions by free Differential Graded Algebras
I am struggling to find references for explicit computations of things like symmetric algebras and resolutions in the dg context. (any pointers in this direction would be highly appreciated!) I have ...

If a faithfully flat extension of dg/A_$\infty$-algebra is formal, is the original algebra formal (over positive characteristic)?
Proposition 6.2 of Formality of DG algebras (after Kaledin) by Lunts reads (with a few additions to clarify notation):
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic 0. Let $A$ be an $A_\infty$ algebra ...

Do DG-algebras have any sensible notion of integral closure?
Suppose R → S is a map of commutative differential graded algebras over a field of characteristic zero. Under what conditions can we say that there is a factorization R → R' → S ...
