Analog of cellular approximation theorem for $CW_0$-complexes ($CW_\mathcal P$-complexes)
$CW_0$-complexes are analogs of $CW$-complexes, in which the "building blocks" are the rational disks $D^{n+1}_0$ whose boundaries are given by $\partial D^{n+1}_0= S^n_0$, where $S^n_0$ is a ...

DG-Modules over CDG-algebras in the sense of rational homotopy theory
I don't know if this question is elementary or not. Suppose we have a rationalization $X_\mathbb{Q}$ of a simply connected topological space $X$. Then we can construct a CDG-algebra - a minimal ...

sufficient conditions for rational homotopy equivalence
Is it true that if a finite CW complex $X$ is simply connected, and $\tilde{H}_i(X, \mathbb{Q}) =0$ for $i \neq D$, then $X$ is rationally homotopy equivalent to a bouquet of $D$-dimensional spheres?

Does integration induce a Kan fibration between the mapping spaces of CDGAs and cochain complexes over $\mathbb{Q}$?
For two CDGAs $A$ and $B$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, the mapping space $\text{Map}_{CDGA}(A,B)$ is the simplicial set with $n$-simplices
$$
\Phi : A \to B \otimes \Omega^*(\Delta^n)

Is the bar construction of a CDGA model a Hopf algebra model for the loop space?
By a theorem of Adams, if $A = C^*(X;\mathbb{Q})$ is the CDGA of rational cochains on $X$ then the cohomology of the bar complex of $A$ is isomorphic to $H^*(\Omega X; \mathbb{Q})$ as a coalgebra (see ...

My understanding is that one thinks to rational homotopy theory for computational advantage. However, thinking about things in terms of localizations still lacks some amount of intuition for me.
