A model category is a category equipped with notions of weak equivalences, fibrations and cofibrations allowing to run arguments similar to those of classical homotopy theory.

Does the Dwyer-Kan model structure make dgCat a model $2$-category?

Let dgCat be the category of small dg-categories. The well-known Dwyer-Kan model structure makes dgCat a model category. Now we consider dgCat as a 2-category, which objects small dg-categories, $1$- …

Is $\text{DGA}^{-}$ a monoidal model category?

Let $\text{DGA}^{-}$ denote the category of non-positively graded differential graded algebras with differentials of degree $+1$. It is well-known that $\text{DGA}^{-}$ has a model structure with W …

Is dgCat a category or a 2-category?

Let us consider dgCat, the "collection" of all small dg-categories. In On differential graded categories and Lectures on dg categories the authors state that they form a category, i.e. dgCat has smal …

Why do the model structures on dg-algebras and on dg-categories are not compatible?

First we talk about dg-algebras. According to this n-lab page, we write $dgAlg$ for the category of cochain dg-algebras in non-negative degree over a field $k$ of characteristic $0$. Write $CdgAlg\sub …

Does it require Reedy fibrancy when we want the totalization to be weakly equivalent to the ...

This question arises when I am reading the last two Chapter of Hirschhorn's "Model categories and their localizations" In Part (2) of Theorem 19.8.4 of that book it says If $(\bf{\Delta},\mathcal{M} …

How to show the following two definitions of homotopy monomorphism are equivalent?

Let $M$ be a model category. In Toen's The homotopy theory of dg-categories and derived Morita theory Page 11 it is written: a morphism $x \to y$ in a model category $M$ is called a homotopy monomorp …

A question about the morphisms in the homotopy category of dg-Cat

Let $dg-Cat$ denote the category of (small) dg-categories and $Ho(dg-Cat)$ denote the localization of $dg-Cat$ at quasi-equivalence. Using the model structure on $dg-Cat$ we can describe the morphisms …

[Reference Request] The Definition of Adjoint Functors between dg-categories

Let $A$ and $B$ be two dg-categories, $F: A \rightarrow B$ and $G: B \rightarrow A$ are two functors. Then what is the definition that $F$ and $G$ form an adjoint pair? In my mind $F\dashv G$ require …
