Covariant fibrations and diagrams of spaces

If you have a question about this talk, please contact Dr Ignacio Lopez Franco .

For a small category A, I consider the category sSetsA of diagrams of simplicial sets (“spaces”) parametrized by A. The usual homotopy colimit functor construction can be considered as a functor

h!: sSets A—> sSets/NA,

where NA is the nerve of A. It is well known that this functor gives an equivalence of homotopy categories when A is group (viewed as a category with one object). I will show that h! always gives an equivalence of homotopy categories, in the following precise way: One equips sSets^A with the projective model structure, and sSets/NA with the covariant model structure. The talk is based on joint work with Gijs Heuts, and simplifies the treatment in Lurie’s Higher Topos Theory.
