Cofinal morphism of polynomial monads and double delooping

Algebraic Topology 2025-08-19 v2 Category Theory

Abstract

Using the theory of internal algebras classifiers developed by Batanin and Berger, we construct a morphism of polynomial monads which we prove is homotopically cofinal. We then describe how this result constitutes the main conceptual argument for a categorical direct double delooping proof of the Turchin-Dwyer-Hess theorem concerning the explicit double delooping of spaces of long knots.
