Some remarks on Quillen's Dévissage theorem

arXiv:2505.13260

Abstract

In this paper we give a different proof of Quillen's Dévissage theorem using Barwick's theorem of the heart. The key ingredient is a certain short exact sequence of dg categories, which is closely related with the Auslander-type construction for nilpotent extensions which was used in the papers of Kuznetsov-Lunts \cite{KL15}, Land-Tamme \cite{LT19} and the author \cite{E20}.
