2. Notations

Let kk be a commutative ring. We write ⊗\otimes for ⊗k\otimes_{k}. Let AA be a kk-algebra. We denote by AoppA^{\operatorname{opp}\nolimits} the opposite algebra to AA and we put Aen=A⊗AoppA^{{\mathrm{en}}}=A\otimes A^{\operatorname{opp}\nolimits}.

We denote by A​−ModA\operatorname{\!-Mod}\nolimits the category of AA-modules, by A​−modA\operatorname{\!-mod}\nolimits the category of finitely generated AA-modules, by A​−ProjA\operatorname{\!-Proj}\nolimits the category of projective AA-modules and by A​−projA\operatorname{\!-proj}\nolimits the category of finitely generated projective AA-modules. Assume AA is graded. We denote by A​−modgrA\operatorname{\!-modgr}\nolimits (resp. A​−projgrA\operatorname{\!-projgr}\nolimits) the category of finitely generated (resp. and projective) graded AA-modules.

Given MM a graded kk-module and n∈𝐙n\in{\mathbf{Z}}, we denote by M​⟨n⟩M\langle n\rangle the graded kk-module given by M​⟨n⟩i=Mn+iM\langle n\rangle_{i}=M_{n+i}.

Given 𝒜{\mathcal{A}} an additive category, we denote by Comp⁡(𝒜)\operatorname{Comp}\nolimits({\mathcal{A}}) (resp. Ho⁡(𝒜)\operatorname{Ho}\nolimits({\mathcal{A}})) the category (resp. the homotopy category) of complexes of objects of 𝒜{\mathcal{A}}. If 𝒜{\mathcal{A}} is an abelian category, we denote by D⁡(𝒜)D({\mathcal{A}}) its derived category.

Given 𝒞{\mathcal{C}} a category, we denote by {1}\{1\} the self equivalence of 𝒞𝐙{\mathcal{C}}^{\mathbf{Z}} given by (M⁡{1})i=Mi+1(M\{1\})_{i}=M_{i+1}.

Let 𝒯{\mathcal{T}} be a triangulated category equipped with an automorphism M↦M​⟨1⟩M\mapsto M\langle 1\rangle. We denote by qq the automorphism of K0​(𝒯)K_{0}({\mathcal{T}}) given by [M]↦[M​⟨1⟩][M]\mapsto[M\langle 1\rangle]. This endows K0​(𝒯)K_{0}({\mathcal{T}}) with a structure of 𝐙⁡[q,q−1]{\mathbf{Z}}[q,q^{-1}]-module.
