We construct a nerve from double categories into double $(\infty,1)$-categories and show that it gives a right Quillen and homotopically fully faithful functor between the model structure for weakly horizontally invariant double categories…
We show that the homotopy theory of strict 2-categories embeds in that of $(\infty,2)$-categories in the form of 2-precomplicial sets. More precisely, we construct a nerve-categorification adjunction that is a Quillen pair between Lack's…
In the case of $(\infty,1)$-categories, the homotopy coherent nerve gives a right Quillen equivalence between the models of simplicially enriched categories and of quasi-categories. This shows that homotopy coherent diagrams of…
The most natural notion of a simplicial nerve for a (weak) bicategory was given by Duskin, who showed that a simplicial set is isomorphic to the nerve of a $(2,1)$-category (i.e. a bicategory with invertible $2$-morphisms) if and only if it…
This paper explores the relationship amongst the various simplicial and pseudo-simplicial objects characteristically associated to any bicategory C. It proves the fact that the geometric realizations of all of these possible candidate…
We introduce, for \(\C\) a regular Cartesian Reedy category a model category whose fibrant objects are an analogue of quasicategories enriched in simplicial presheaves on \(C\). We then develop a coherent realization and nerve for this…
The goal of this paper is to provide the last equivalence needed in order to identify all known models for $(\infty,2)$-categories. We do this by showing that Verity's model of saturated $2$-trivial complicial sets is equivalent to Lurie's…
The notion of geometric nerve of a 2-category (Street, \cite{refstreet}) provides a full and faithful functor if regarded as defined on the category of 2-categories and lax 2-functors. Furthermore, lax 2-natural transformations between lax…
The homotopy coherent nerve from simplicial categories to simplicial sets and its left adjoint C are important to the study of (infinity,1)-categories because they provide a means for comparing two models of their respective homotopy…
We construct a model structure on the category $\mathrm{DblCat}$ of double categories and double functors. Unlike previous model structures for double categories, it recovers the homotopy theory of 2-categories through the horizontal…
We construct an $(\infty,2)$-version of the (lax) Gray tensor product. On the 1-categorical level, this is a binary (or more generally an $n$-ary) functor on the category of $\Theta_2$-sets, and it is shown to be left Quillen with respect…
For a small category A, we prove that the homotopy colimit functor from the category of simplicial diagrams on A to the category of simplicial sets over the nerve of A establishes a left Quillen equivalence between the projective (or Reedy)…
We give the definitions of model bicategory and $q$-homotopy, which are natural generalizations of the notions of model category and homotopy to the context of bicategories. For any model bicategory $\mathcal{C}$, denote by…
Dimitri Ara's 2-quasi-categories, which are certain presheaves over Andr\'{e} Joyal's 2-cell category $\Theta_2$, are an example of a concrete model that realises the abstract notion of $(\infty,2)$-category. In this paper, we prove that…
In this paper we describe two ways on which cofibred categories give rise to bisimplicial sets. The "fibred nerve" is a natural extension of Segal's classical nerve of a category, and it constitutes an alternative simplicial description of…
In this work, we conclude our study of fibred $\infty$-bicategories by providing a Grothendieck construction in this setting. Given a scaled simplicial set $S$ (which need not be fibrant) we construct a 2-categorical version of Lurie's…
In this paper we study a 2-dimensional version of Quillen's homotopy category construction. Given a category $\mathscr{A}$ and a class of morphisms $\Sigma \subset \mathscr{A}$ containing the identities, we construct a 2-category…
For a small simplicial category A, we prove that the homotopy colimit functor from the category of simplicial diagrams on A to the category of simplicial sets over the homotopy-coherent nerve of A provides a left Quillen equivalence between…
In [Homotopical Algebra, Springer LNM 43] Quillen introduces the notion of a model category: a category $\mathcal{C}$ provided with three distinguished classes of maps $\{\mathcal{W},\, \mathcal{F},\, co\mathcal{F}\}$ (weak equivalences,…
In this paper, we address the construction of homotopy bicategories of $(\infty,2)$-categories, which we take as being modeled by 2-fold Segal spaces. Our main result is the concrete construction of a functor $h_2$ from the category of…
