Quasi-2-Segal sets

We show that the 2-Segal spaces (also called decomposition spaces) of Dyckerhoff-Kapranov and G\'alvez-Kock-Tonks have a natural analogue within simplicial sets, which we call quasi-2-Segal sets, and that the two ideas enjoy a similar relationship as the one Segal spaces have with quasi-categories. In particular, we construct a model structure on the category of simplicial sets whose fibrant objects are the quasi-2-Segal sets which is Quillen equivalent to a model structure for complete 2-Segal spaces (where our notion of completeness comes from one of the equivalent characterizations of completeness for Segal spaces). We also prove a path space criterion, which says that a simplicial set is a quasi-2-Segal set if and only if its path spaces (also called d\'ecalage) are quasi-categories, as well as an edgewise subdivision criterion.

Generalizing quasi-categories via model structures on simplicial sets

We use Cisinski's machinery to construct and study model structures on the category of simplicial sets whose classes of fibrant objects generalize quasi-categories. We identify a lifting condition which captures the homotopical behavior of quasi-categories without the algebraic aspects and show that there is a model structure whose fibrant objects are precisely those which satisfy this condition. We also identify a localization of this model structure whose fibrant objects satisfy a "special horn lifting" condition similar to the one satisfied by quasi-categories. This special horn model structure leads to a conjecture characterization of the bijective-on-0-simplices trivial cofibrations of the Joyal model structure. We also discuss how these model structures all relate to one another and to the minimal model structure.
