Arboreal Objects and Their Homotopy Theory

Atabey Kaygun

Abstract

We construct a category $\OrdFor$ as an arboreal extension of $Δ_{\mathrm{epi}}\subseteqΔ$, whose morphisms are ordered forests composed by grafting. We define a full functor $π\colon \OrdFor\toΔ_{\mathrm{epi}}^{op}$ extracting the semisimplicial shadow. For every complete category $\mathcal C$, this induces a fully faithful functor from semisimplicial objects in $\mathcal C$ to $\mathcal C$-valued presheaves on $\OrdFor$, with right adjoint given by right Kan extension. We show that if weak equivalences of arboreal objects are detected by this right adjoint, then their Gabriel--Zisman localization is equivalent to that of semisimplicial objects. For bicomplete cofibrantly generated model categories, under the usual acyclicity hypothesis for right-induced transfer, the corresponding model structure on arboreal objects is Quillen equivalent to the Reedy model structure on semisimplicial objects.

Arboreal Objects and Their Homotopy Theory

Abstract

We construct a category as an arboreal extension of , whose morphisms are ordered forests composed by grafting. We define a full functor extracting the semisimplicial shadow. For every complete category , this induces a fully faithful functor from semisimplicial objects in to -valued presheaves on , with right adjoint given by right Kan extension. We show that if weak equivalences of arboreal objects are detected by this right adjoint, then their Gabriel--Zisman localization is equivalent to that of semisimplicial objects. For bicomplete cofibrantly generated model categories, under the usual acyclicity hypothesis for right-induced transfer, the corresponding model structure on arboreal objects is Quillen equivalent to the Reedy model structure on semisimplicial objects.

Key Result

Theorem 1.3

Let $(P,\leq_P,\preceq_P)$ be an ordered forest, and write $\max(P,\leq_P)=\{m_0,\dots,m_r\}$ with $m_0\preceq_P\cdots\preceq_P m_r$. Set $T_i:=L_P(m_i)$. Then: In particular, every ordered forest decomposes canonically into an ordered disjoint union of ordered trees.
