Derived equivalences from mutations of quivers with potential

AbstractWe show that Derksen–Weyman–Zelevinsky's mutations of quivers with potential yield equivalences of suitable 3-Calabi–Yau triangulated categories. Our approach is related to that of Iyama–Reiten and ‘Koszul dual’ to that of Kontsevich–Soibelman. It improves on previous work by Vitória. In Appendix A, the first-named author studies pseudo-compact derived categories of certain pseudo-compact dg algebras
