Abstract: We prove that rationally, two commutative dg algebras are quasi-isomorphic if and only if they are quasi-isomorphic as associative dg algebras. We also prove a Koszul dual theorem, that two dg Lie algebras are quasi-isomorphic if and only if their universal enveloping algebras are quasi-isomorphic. The latter result is new already for classical (non-dg) algebras, in which case it says that two Lie algebras over a field of characteristic zero are isomorphic if and only if their universal enveloping algebras are isomorphic as associative algebras. This builds on and generalizes work of Saleh.
