Abstract
We prove a derived version of the Gabriel-Popescu theorem in the framework of dg-categories and t-structures. This exhibits any pretriangulated dg-category with a suitable t-structure (such that its heart is a Grothendieck abelian category) as a t-exact localization of a derived dg-category of dg-modules.
We give an original proof based on a generalization of Mitchell's argument in A quick proof of the Gabriel-Popesco theorem that involves derived injective objects. As an application, we provide a short proof of the fact that derived categories of Grothendieck abelian categories have a unique dg-enhancement.
