Abstract

For a smashing localisation L of the derived category of a differential graded (dg) algebra A we construct a dg algebra A L and a morphism of dg algebras AA L that induces the canonical map in cohomology. As a first application we obtain a localisations \(A_{\mathfrak{p}}\) of a dg algebra A with graded commutative homology at a prime ideal \(\mathfrak{p}\) in the homology H * A, namely a morphism \(A\to A_{\mathfrak{p}}\) of dg algebras. As a second application we can use results of Keller to “model” every smashing localisation of compactly generated algebraic triangulated categories by a morphism of dg algebras.
