contents To any periodic module over any algebra, this paper introduces an associated trivial extension DG-algebra T. After first passing to a strictly unital $A_\infty$-minimal model, it then constructs a particular $A_\infty$-algebra N, called the unitally positive $A_\infty$-algebra, which roughly speaking describes the identity in degree zero and all the positive cohomology. The object N is fundamental, and can be constructed for any DG-category satisfying very mild assumptions. The main application is to birational geometry. When applied to contraction algebras, the construction gives a simple and direct proof of the Donovan-Wemyss conjecture, namely that smooth irreducible 3-fold flops are classified by their contraction algebras, and thus by noncommutative data.
