Integrating representations up to homotopy

I report on joint work with C. Arias Abad on the integration of representations up to homotopy (including reps of Lie algebras and Quillen's flat superconnections). The heart of the construction is an homotopy equivalence between the dg algebra of differential forms and the dg algebra of simplicial cochains due to Gugenheim.
