چکیده
We show that if U∗ is a hypercover of a topological space X then the natural map hocolimU∗ → X is a weak equivalence. This fact is used to construct topological realization functors for the A-homotopy theory of schemes over real and complex fields.

Local Acyclic Fibrations and the De Rham Complex
We reinterpret algebraic de Rham cohomology for a possibly singular complex variety X as sheaf cohomology in the site of smooth schemes over X with Voevodsky’s h-topology. Our results extend to the algebraic de Rham complex as well. Our main technique is to extend Čech cohomology of hypercovers to arbitrary local acyclic fibrations of simplicial presheaves.
متن کاملHypercovers and simplicial presheaves
We use hypercovers to study the homotopy theory of simplicial presheaves. The main result says that model structures for simplicial presheaves involving local weak equivalences can be constructed by localizing at the hypercovers. One consequence is that the fibrant objects can be explicitly described in terms of a hypercover descent condition. These ideas are central to constructing realization...

We show that if U∗ is a hypercover of a topological space X then the natural map hocolim U∗→X is a weak equivalence. This fact is used to construct topological realization functors for the A1-homotopy theory of schemes over real and complex fields. In an appendix, we also prove a theorem about computing homotopy colimits of spaces that are not cofibrant. Mathematics Subject Classification (2000...
متن کاملn-groupoids and stacky groupoids
We discuss two generalizations of Lie groupoids. One consists of Lie n-groupoids defined as simplicial manifolds with trivial πk≥n+1. The other consists of stacky Lie groupoids G ⇒ M with G a differentiable stack. We build a 1–1 correspondence between Lie 2-groupoids and stacky Lie groupoids up to a certain Morita equivalence. We prove this in a general set-up so that the statement is valid in ...
متن کاملAn Alexandroff topology on graphs
Let G = (V,E) be a locally finite graph, i.e. a graph in which every vertex has finitely many adjacent vertices. In this paper, we associate a topology to G, called graphic topology of G and we show that it is an Alexandroff topology, i.e. a topology in which intersec- tion of every family of open sets is open. Then we investigate some properties of this topology. Our motivation is to give an e...
