Model structures for $(\infty,n)$-categories on (pre)stratified simplicial sets and prestratified simplicial spaces

We prove the existence of a model structure on the category of stratified simplicial sets whose fibrant objects are precisely $n$-complicial sets, which are a proposed model for $(\infty,n)$-categories, based on previous work of Verity and Riehl. We then construct a Quillen equivalent model based on simplicial presheaves over a category that can facilitate the comparison with other established models.

Fundamental pushouts of n-complicial sets

The paper focuses on investigating how certain relations between strict $n$-categories are preserved in a particular implementation of $(\infty,n)$-categories, given by saturated $n$-complicial sets. In this model, we show that the $(\infty,n)$-categorical nerve of $n$-categories is homotopically compatible with $1$-categorical suspension and wedge. As an application, we show that certain pushouts encoding composition in $n$-categories are homotopy pushouts of saturated $n$-complicial sets.

Nerves of 2-categories and 2-categorification of $(\infty,2)$-categories

We show that the homotopy theory of strict 2-categories embeds in that of $(\infty,2)$-categories in the form of 2-precomplicial sets. More precisely, we construct a nerve-categorification adjunction that is a Quillen pair between Lack's model structure for 2-categories and Riehl-Verity's model structure for 2-complicial sets. Furthermore, we show that Lack's model structure is transferred along this nerve and that the nerve is homotopically fully faithful.

Rings of modular forms and a splitting of $TMF_0(7)$

Among topological modular forms with level structure, $TMF_0(7)$ at the prime $3$ is the first example that had not been understood yet. We provide a splitting of $TMF_0(7)$ at the prime 3 as $TMF$-module into two shifted copies of $TMF$ and two shifted copies of $TMF_1(2)$. This gives evidence to a much more general splitting conjecture. Along the way, we develop several new results on the algebraic side. For example, we show the normality of rings of modular forms of level $n$ and introduce cubical versions of moduli stacks of elliptic curves with level structure.

2-Segal objects and the Waldhausen construction

In a previous paper, we showed that a discrete version of the $S_\bullet$-construction gives an equivalence of categories between unital 2-Segal sets and augmented stable double categories. Here, we generalize this result to the homotopical setting, by showing that there is a Quillen equivalence between a model category for unital 2-Segal objects and a model category for augmented stable double Segal objects which is given by an $S_\bullet$-construction. We show that this equivalence fits together with the result in the discrete case and briefly discuss how it encompasses other known $S_\bullet$-constructions.

2-Segal sets and the Waldhausen construction

It is known by results of Dyckerhoff-Kapranov and of Gálvez--Carrillo-Kock-Tonks that the output of the Waldhausen S.-construction has a unital 2-Segal structure. Here, we prove that a certain S.-functor defines an equivalence between the category of augmented stable double categories and the category of unital 2-Segal sets. The inverse equivalence is described explicitly by a path construction. We illustrate the equivalence for the known examples of partial monoids, cobordism categories with genus constraints and graph coalgebras.

Factorability, String Rewriting and Discrete Morse Theory

This article deals with the notion of factorability. Elements of a factorable group or monoid possess a normal form, which leads to a small complex homotopy equivalent to its bar complex, thus computing its homology. We investigate the relations to string rewriting and to discrete Morse theory on the bar complex. Furthermore, we describe a connection between factorability and Garside theory.

Fibrancy of Partial Model Categories

We investigate fibrancy conditions in the Thomason model structure on the category of small categories. In particular, we show that the category of weak equivalences of a partial model category is fibrant. Furthermore, we describe connections to calculi of fractions.

A model structure on GCat

We define a model structure on the category GCat of small categories with an action by a finite group G by lifting the Thomason model structure on Cat. We show there is a Quillen equivalence between GCat with this model structure and GTop with the standard model structure.

Discrete Morse Theory and a Reformulation of the K(π,1)-conjecture

A recent theorem of Dobrinskaya states that the K(π,1)-conjecture holds for an Artin group G if and only if the canonical map from BM to BG is a homotopy equivalence, where M denotes the Artin monoid associated to G. The aim of this paper is to give an alternative proof by means of discrete Morse theory and abstract homotopy theory. Moreover, we exhibit a new model for the classifying space of an Artin monoid, in the spirit of Charney, Meier and Whittlesey, and a small chain complex for computing its monoid homology, similar to the one of Squier.
