Simplicial Structures on Model Categories and Functors
نویسنده
چکیده
We produce a highly structured way of associating a simplicial category to a model category which improves on work of Dwyer and Kan and answers a question of Hovey. We show that model categories satisfying a certain axiom are Quillen equivalent to simplicial model categories. A simplicial model category provides higher order structure such as composable mapping spaces and homotopy colimits. We also show that certain homotopy invariant functors can be replaced by weakly equivalent simplicial, or ‘continuous’, functors. This is used to show that if a simplicial model category structure exists on a model category then it is unique up to simplicial Quillen equivalence.

A Characterization of Simplicial Localization Functors and a Discussion of Dk Equivalences
In a previous paper we lifted Charles Rezk’s complete Segal model structure on the category of simplicial spaces to a Quillen equivalent one on the category of “relative categories.” Here, we characterize simplicial localization functors among relative functors from relative categories to simplicial categories as any choice of homotopy inverse to the delocalization functor of Dwyer and the seco...
متن کاملSimplicial radditive functors
The goal of this paper is construct a framework which can be used to proof results of this kind for a wide class of closed model categories and functors between those categories. Originally I was interested in the proof that the symmetric power functors respect A-equivalences between simplicial schemes but it soon became clear that similar problems arise for other categories (such as finite cor...
متن کاملSimplicial and Categorical Diagrams, and Their Equivariant Applications
We show that the homotopy category of simplicial diagrams I-SS indexed by a small category I is equivalent to a homotopy category of SS ↓ NI simplicial sets over the nerve NI. Then their equivalences, by means of the nerve functor N : Cat → SS from the category Cat of small categories, with respective homotopy categories associated to Cat are established. Consequently, an equivariant simplicial...
متن کاملSimplicial Structures and Function Spaces in General Model Categories
MapC(A,X) = MorC(A⊗∆, X), where we take the morphisms on each component of the cosimplicial objectA⊗∆• to get a simplicial set of morphisms associated to the pair A,X ∈ C. We have a dual approach involving simplicial function objects X 7→ X∆ instead of cosimplicial objects A 7→ A ⊗ ∆•, but in a simplicial model category, we have an adjunction relation between these functors, so that both constr...
متن کاملMonoidal Uniqueness of Stable Homotopy Theory
We show that the monoidal product on the stable homotopy category of spectra is essentially unique. This strengthens work of this author with Schwede on the uniqueness of models of the stable homotopy theory of spectra. Also, the equivalences constructed here give a unified construction of the known equivalences of the various symmetric monoidal categories of spectra (S-modules, W -spaces, orth...
