Dwyer-Kan localization revisited

Quantum Algebra 2015-09-21 v4 Algebraic Topology

Abstract

A version of Dwyer-Kan localization in the context of infinity-categories and simplicial categories is presented. Some results of the classical papers by Dwyer and Kan on simplicial localization are reproven and generalized. It is proven that a Quillen pair of model categories gives rise to an adjoint pair of the DK localizations. Also a result on localization of a family of infinity-categories is proven. This, in particular, is applied to localization of symmetric monoidal infinity-categories, where some (partial) results are obtained.
