Abstract

Let (C,E,s)(\mathcal{C},\mathbb{E},\mathfrak{s}) be an extriangulated category. Given a composition of two commutative squares in C\mathcal{C}, if two commutative squares are homotopy cartesian, then their composition is also a homotopy cartesian. This covers the result by Mac Lane (1998) for abelian categories and the result by Christensen and Frankland (2022) for triangulated categories.
