In this short note we show that the homotopy category of smooth compactifications of smooth algebraic varieties is equivalent to the homotopy category of smooth varieties over a field of characteristic zero. As an application we show that…
We develop a homotopy theory for additive categories endowed with endofunctors, analogous to the concept of a model structure. We use it to construct the homotopy theory of a Hovey triple (which consists of two compatible complete cotorsion…
We develop the theory of smooth principal bundles for a smooth group $G$, using the framework of diffeological spaces. After giving new examples showing why arbitrary principal bundles cannot be classified, we define $D$-numerable bundles,…
We construct a "diagonal" cofibrantly generated model structre on the category of simplicial objects in the category of topological categories sCat_{Top}, which is the category of diagrams [\Delta^{op}, Cat_{Top}]. Moreover, we prove that…
We construct a version of differential $K$-theory based on smooth Banach manifold models for the homotopy types $B \mathrm U\times Z$ and $\mathrm U$ that appear in the topological $K$-theory spectrum. These manifolds carry natural…
To construct an $A_{\infty}$-form for a loop space in the category of diffeological spaces, we have two minor problems. Firstly, the concatenation of paths in the category of diffeological spaces needs a small technical trick (see…
We introduce a notion of a filtered model structure and use this notion to produce various model structures on pro-categories. This framework generalizes several known examples. We give several examples, including a homotopy theory for…
We show that every sheaf on the site of smooth manifolds with values in a stable (infinity,1)-category (like spectra or chain complexes) gives rise to a differential cohomology diagram and a homotopy formula, which are common features of…
In the first part of the paper, we prove that the category of diffeological spaces does not admit a model structure transferred via the smooth singular complex functor from simplicial sets, resolving in the negative a conjecture of…
We regard the classification of rational homotopy types as a problem in algebraic deformation theory: any space with given cohomology is a perturbation, or deformation, of the "formal" space with that cohomology. The classifying space is…
We introduce a notion of "weak model category" which is a weakening of the notion of Quillen model category, still sufficient to define a homotopy category, Quillen adjunctions, Quillen equivalences and most of the usual construction of…
Simplicial presheaves on cartesian spaces provide a general notion of smooth spaces. There is a corresponding smooth version of the singular complex functor, which maps smooth spaces to simplicial sets. We consider the localisation of the…
We construct a Quillen model structure on the category of spectral categories, where the weak equivalences are the symmetric spectra analogue of the notion of equivalence of categories.
In the present article, we describe constructions of model structures on general bicomplete categories. We are motivated by the following question: given a category $\mathcal{C}$ with a subcategory $w\mathcal{C}$ closed under retracts, when…
In [BaSc2], the author and Tomer Schlank introduced a much weaker homotopical structure than a model category, which we called a "weak cofibration category". We further showed that a small weak cofibration category induces in a natural way…
We prove that any category of props in a symmetric monoidal model category inherits a model structure. We devote an appendix, about half the size of the paper, to the proof of the model category axioms in a general setting. We need the…
We construct a cofibrantly generated model structure on the category of differential non-negatively graded quasi-coherent commutative $D_X$-algebras, where $D_X$ is the sheaf of differential operators of a smooth afine algebraic variety X.…
We define a diffeology on the Milnor classifying space of a diffeological group $G$, constructed in a similar fashion to the topological version using an infinite join. Besides obtaining the expected classification theorem for smooth…
Let $\bf C$ be a coreflective subcategory of a cofibrantly generated model category $\bf D$. In this paper we show that under suitable conditions $\bf C$ admits a cofibrantly generated model structure which is left Quillen adjunct to the…
For a complete and cocomplete category $\mathcal{C}$ with a well-behaved class of `projectives' $\bar{\mathcal{P}}$, we construct a model structure on the category $s\mathcal{C}$ of simplicial objects in $\mathcal{C}$ where the weak…
