\chapter{Homotopy Theory For cdga's}
|
|
|
|
Recall that a cdga $A$ is a commutative differential graded algebra, meaning that
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item it has a grading: $A = \bigoplus_{n\in\N} A^n$,
|
|
\item it has a differential: $d: A \to A$ with $d^2 = 0$,
|
|
\item it has an associative and unital multiplication: $\mu: A \tensor A \to A$ and
|
|
\item it is commutative: $x y = (-1)^{\deg{x}\cdot\deg{y}} y x$.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
And all of the above structure is compatible with each other (e.g. the differential is a derivation of degree $1$, the maps are graded, \dots). We have a left adjoint $\Lambda$ to the forgetful functor $U$ which assigns the free graded commutative algebras $\Lambda V$ to a graded module $V$. This extends to an adjunction (also called $\Lambda$ and $U$) between commutative differential graded algebras and differential graded modules.
|
|
|
|
In homological algebra we are especially interested in \emph{quasi isomorphisms}, i.e. maps $f: A \to B$ inducing an isomorphism on cohomology: $H(f): HA \iso HB$. This notions makes sense for any object with a differential.
|
|
|
|
We furthermore have the following categorical properties of cdga's:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item The finite coproduct in $\CDGA_\k$ is the (graded) tensor product.
|
|
\item The finite product in $\CDGA_\k$ is the cartesian product (with pointwise operations).
|
|
\item The equalizer (resp. coequalizer) of $f$ and $g$ is given by the kernel (resp. cokernel) of $f - g$. Together with the (co)products this defines pullbacks and pushouts.
|
|
\item $\k$ and $0$ are the initial and final object.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
In this chapter the ring $\k$ is assumed to be a field of characteristic zero. In particular the modules are vector spaces.
