Berger-Joyal duality and traces I
We give a new proof that the opposite of Joyal's disk category $\mathcal{D}_n$ is Berger's wreath product category $\Theta_n = \Delta\wr\cdots\wr\Delta$. Our techniques continue to apply when the simplex category $\Delta$ is replaced by Connes' cyclic category $\Lambda$ and some other crossed simplicial groups.
