Simplicial homotopy theory

Homotopy Theory of Simplicial Abelian Hopf Algebras

We examine the homotopy theory of simplicial graded abelian Hopf algebras over a prime field Fp, p > 0, proving that two very different notions of weak equivalence yield the same homotopy category. We then prove a splitting result for the Postnikov tower of such simplicial Hopf algebras. As an application, we show how to recover the homotopy groups of a simplicial Hopf algebra from its André-Qu...

Weighted Limits in Simplicial Homotopy Theory

We extend the theory of Quillen adjunctions by combining ideas of homotopical algebra and of enriched category theory. Our results describe how the formulas for homotopy colimits of Bousfield and Kan arise from general formulas describing the derived functor of the weighted colimit functor.

Homotopy theory of simplicial sheaves in completely decomposable topologies

Every Homotopy Theory of Simplicial Algebras Admits a Proper Model

We show that any closed model category of simplicial algebras over an algebraic theory is Quillen equivalent to a proper closed model category. By “simplicial algebra” we mean any category of algebras over a simplicial algebraic theory, which is allowed to be multi-sorted. The results have applications to the construction of localization model category structures.

Closed Simplicial Model Structures for Exterior and Proper Homotopy Theory

The notion of exterior space consists of a topological space together with a certain nonempty family of open subsets that is thought of as a ‘system of open neighborhoods at infinity’ while an exterior map is a continuous map which is ‘continuous at infinity’. The category of spaces and proper maps is a subcategory of the category of exterior spaces. In this paper we show that the category of e...
