We establish an equivalence of homotopy theories between symmetric monoidal bicategories and connective spectra. For this, we develop the theory of $\Gamma$-objects in 2-categories. In the course of the proof we establish strictfication…

A symmetric monoidal category is a category equipped with an associative and commutative (binary) product and an object which is the unit for the product. In fact, those properties only hold up to natural isomorphisms which satisfy some…

We study four types of (co)cartesian fibrations of $\infty$-bicategories over a given base $\mathcal{B}$, and prove that they encode the four variance flavors of $\mathcal{B}$-indexed diagrams of $\infty$-categories. We then use this…

For $\Cc$ a $G$-category, we give a condition on a diagram of simplicial sets indexed on $\Cc$ that allows us to define a natural $G$-action on its homotopy colimit, and in some other simplicial sets and categories defined in terms of the…

In this paper we show that the strict and lax pullbacks of a 2-categorical opfibration along an arbitrary 2-functor are homotopy equivalent. We give two applications. First, we show that the strict fibers of an opfibration model the…

For a diagram of simplicial combinatorial model categories, we show that the associated lax limit, endowed with the projective model structure, is a presentation of the lax limit of the underlying $\infty$-categories. Our approach can also…

This paper is the first in a series of two papers, $\mathbf{Z}$-Categories I and $\mathbf{Z}$-Categories II, which develop the notion of $\mathbf{Z}$-category, the natural bi-infinite analog to strict $\omega$-categories, and show that the…

We define the notion of a 2-operad relative to an operad, and prove that the 2-associahedra form a 2-operad relative to the associahedra. Using this structure, we define the notions of an $(A_\infty,2)$-category and $(A_\infty,2)$-algebra…

In this note we provide a characterization, in terms of additional algebraic structure, of those intervals (certain cocategory objects) in a symmetric monoidal closed category E that are representable in the sense of inducing on E the…

Without the axiom of choice, the free exact completion of the category of sets (i.e. the category of setoids) may not be complete or cocomplete. We will show that nevertheless, it can be enhanced to a derivator: the formal structure of…

We introduce the notion of a "category with path objects", as a slight strengthening of Kenneth Brown's classic notion of a "category of fibrant objects". We develop the basic properties of such a category and its associated homotopy…

We present a criterion for $2$-final $(2,1)$-functors, analoguous to the classical one for final $1$-functor: a $(2,1)$-functor $F \colon A \to B$ is $2$-final if and only if, for any object $b$ of $B$, the slice $(2,1)$-category $b / F$ is…

An appropriate framework is put forward for the construction of $\lambda$-models with $\infty$-groupoid structure, which we call \textit{homotopic $\lambda$-models}, through the use of an $\infty$-category with cartesian closure and enough…

We give a self-contained introduction to accessible categories and how they shed light on both model- and set-theoretic questions. We survey for example recent developments on the study of presentability ranks, a notion of cardinality…

We extend Campion's pasting theorem for $(\infty, n)$-categories to a larger class of polygraphs, called the directed complexes with frame-acyclic molecules. It follows, for instance, that this pasting theorem applies to any polygraph…

We formulate and prove a twofold generalisation of Lie's second theorem that integrates homomorphisms between formal group laws to homomorphisms between Lie groups. Firstly we generalise classical Lie theory by replacing groups with…

In this paper, we discuss the construction of classifying spaces of fibre sequences in model categories of simplicial sheaves. One construction proceeds via Brown representability and provides a classification in the pointed model category.…

A category has the amalgamation property (AP) if every pushout diagram has a cocone, and the joint embedding property (JEP) if every finite coproduct diagram has a cocone. We show that for a finitely generated category $\mathbf I$, the…

This is an introduction to the study of abstract homotopy theory by means of model categories and $(\infty,1)$-categories. The only prerequisites are very basic general topology and abstract algebra. None categorical background is needed.…

We use a category-theoretic formulation of Aczel's Fullness Axiom from Constructive Set Theory to derive the local cartesian closure of an exact completion. As an application, we prove that such a formulation is valid in the homotopy…
