In this work, we introduce a 2-categorical variant of Lurie's relative nerve functor. We prove that it defines a right Quillen equivalence which, upon passage to $\infty$-categorical localizations, corresponds to Lurie's scaled…

We construct a left semi-model category of "marked strict $\infty$-categories" for which the fibrant objects are those whose marked arrows satisfy natural closure properties and are weakly invertible. The canonical model structure on strict…

We discuss various concepts of $\infty$-homotopies, as well as the relations between them (focussing on the Leibniz type). In particular $\infty$-$n$-homotopies appear as the $n$-simplices of the nerve of a complete Lie ${\infty}$-algebra.…

In this paper we prove that various quasi-categories whose objects are $\infty$-categories in a very general sense are complete: admitting limits indexed by all simplicial sets. This result and others of a similar flavor follow from a…

We construct a model structure on the category $\mathrm{DblCat}$ of double categories and double functors, whose trivial fibrations are the double functors that are surjective on objects, full on horizontal and vertical morphisms, and fully…

We establish a Quillen equivalence relating the homotopy theory of Segal operads and the homotopy theory of simplicial operads, from which we deduce that the homotopy coherent nerve functor is a right Quillen equivalence from the model…

For most models of $(\infty,2)$-categories an embedding of the $\infty$-category of 2-categories into that of $(\infty,2)$-categories has been constructed in the form of a nerve construction of some flavor. We prove that all those nerve…

This book is an introduction to 2-categories and bicategories, assuming only the most elementary aspects of category theory. A review of basic category theory is followed by a systematic discussion of 2-/bicategories, pasting diagrams, lax…

If $\mathscr{M}$ is a model category and $\mathcal{U}: \mathscr{A} \rightarrow \mathscr{M}$ is a functor, we defined a Quillen-Segal $\mathcal{U}$-object as a weak equivalence $\mathscr{F}: s(\mathscr{F}) \xrightarrow{\sim} t(\mathscr{F})$…

We construct a cofibrantly generated Quillen model structure on the category of small n-fold categories and prove that it is Quillen equivalent to the standard model structure on the category of simplicial sets. An n-fold functor is a weak…

We introduce a notion of n-quasi-categories as fibrant objects of a model category structure on presheaves on Joyal's n-cell category \Theta_n. Our definition comes from an idea of Cisinski and Joyal. However, we show that this idea has to…

Any tricategory characteristically has associated various simplicial or pseudo-simplicial objects. This paper explores the relationship amongst three of them: the pseudo-simplicial bicategory so-called Grothendieck nerve of the tricategory,…

We lay the foundations for a theory of quasi-categories in a monoidal category $\mathcal{V}$ replacing $\mathrm{Set}$, aimed at realising weak enrichment in the category $S\mathcal{V}$ of simplicial objects in $\mathcal{V}$. To accomodate…

We describe a Cat-valued nerve of bicategories, which associates to every bicategory a simplicial object in Cat, called the 2-nerve. We define a 2-category NHom whose objects are bicategories and whose 1-cells are normal homomorphisms of…

We put a model structure on the category of categories internal to simplicial sets whose weak equivalences are reflected by the nerve functor to bisimplicial sets with Rezk's model structure. This model structure is shown to be Quillen…

The aim of this paper is to prove that the A$_{\infty}$-nerve of two quasi-equivalent A$_{\infty}$-categories (linear over a commutative ring) are weak-equivalent in the Joyal model structure. As a consequence we prove that the…

Certain results involving "higher structures" are not currently accessible to computer formalization because the prerequisite $\infty$-category theory has not been formalized. To support future work on formalizing $\infty$-category theory…

We prove a bicategorical analogue of Quillen's Theorem A. As an application, we deduce the well-known result that a pseudofunctor is a biequivalence if and only if it is essentially surjective on objects, essentially full on 1-cells, and…
