Unbounded twisted complexes

Abstract: The notion of a (bounded) twisted complex of objects in a DG category was introduced by Bondal and Kapranov as a tool to study and construct DG enhancements of triangulated categories. It can be viewed as a lift to the DG enhancement of a bounded complex of objects in the underlying triangulated category. But what if one needs to work with unbounded complexes of objects? In this talk, I will first give an introduction summarising the original theory of bounded twisted complexes. Then I will explain the difficulties involved in making it work with unbounded complexes, and how they are dealt with in the resulting theory of unbounded twisted complexes due to Rina Anno and I. Finally, I will talk about some applications, such as A-infinity structures in monoidal DG categories and homotopy idempotents.
