Abstract

In this article we show how to build main aspects of our paper on globular weak (,n)(\infty,n)-categories, but now for the cubical geometry. Thus we define a monad on the category CSets\mathbb{C}\mathbb{S}ets of cubical sets which algebras are models of cubical weak \infty-categories. Also for each nNn\in\mathbb{N} we define a monad on CSets\mathbb{C}\mathbb{S}ets which algebras are models of cubical weak (,n)(\infty,n)-categories. And finally we define a monad on the category CSets2\mathbb{C}\mathbb{S}ets^2 which algebras are models of cubical weak \infty-functors, and a monad on the category CSets4\mathbb{C}\mathbb{S}ets^4 which algebras are models of cubical weak natural \infty-transformations.

Comments

40 pages; An improved version of the previous version; for the paragraph referring to $(\infty,m)$-categories, we treated only the case $m=0$. An even more improved version dealing with all $m\in\mathbb{N}$ will be proposed later
