Modeling Stable One-Types

Algebraic Topology 2021-07-23 v3 Category Theory

Abstract

Classification of homotopy n-types has focused on developing algebraic categories which are equivalent to categories of n-types. We expand this theory by providing algebraic models of homotopy-theoretic constructions for stable one-types. These include a model for the Postnikov one-truncation of the sphere spectrum, and for its action on the model of a stable one-type. We show that a bicategorical cokernel introduced by Vitale models the cofiber of a map between stable one-types, and apply this to develop an algebraic model for the Postnikov data of a stable one-type.
