Cofibrantly generated model structures for functor calculus

From MaRDI portal





This paper uses the model structure for discrete calculus developed here to recast existing compariosns between the homotopy functor and discrete calculi, such as [\textit{K. Bauer} et al., Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 367, No. 9, 6671--6718 (2015; Zbl 1332.55005)], in model-theoretic terms, and develops a model category classification of homogeneous degree functors similar to [\textit{G. Biedermann} and \textit{O. Röndigs}, Algebr. Geom. Topol. 14, No. 5, 2853--2913 (2014; Zbl 1307.55009)]. This paper is structured around the following two theorems, showing how to use them to build cofibrantly generated model structures corresponding to both the homotopy functor and discrete calculi.\N\NTheorem. (Theorem 4.2 and Corollary 4.4) Let \(\mathcal{M}\) be a right proper model category together with an endofunctor \(Q:\mathcal{M}\rightarrow\mathcal{M}\) and a natrual transformation \(\eta:\mathrm{id}\Longrightarrow Q\) abiding the following conditions:\N\N\begin{itemize}\N\item[1.] the endofunctor \(Q\) preserves weak equivalences in \(\mathcal{M}\);\N\item[2.] the maps \(\eta_{QX},Q\left(\eta_{X}\right):QX\rightarrow Q^{2} X\) are both weak equivalences in \(\mathcal{M}\);\N\item[3.] \(Q\) preserves homotopy pullback squares.\N\end{itemize}\N\NThen there exists a right proper model structure, denoted by \(\mathcal{M}_{Q}\), on the same underlying category as \(\mathcal{M}\) with the same cofibrations as \(\mathcal{M}\) and in which \(X\rightarrow Y\) is a weTh\N\NTheorem. (Theorem 8.3) Suppose that \(\mathrm{Fun}\left( \mathcal{C},\mathcal{D}\right)\) is a cofibrantly generated right proper model structure on a category of simplicial functors in which all fibrations are also levelwise fibrations, with some modest additional asuumptions on \(\mathcal{C}\) and \(\mathcal{D}\). If \(Q\) is a Bousfield endofunctor of \(\mathrm{Fun}\left(\mathcal{C},\mathcal{D}\right)\) that admits a collection of test morphisms, then the model structure on \(\mathrm{Fun}\left(\mathcal{C},\mathcal{D} \right)_{Q}\) is cofibrantly generated.\N\NThe synopsis of the paper goes as follows:\N\N\begin{itemize}\N\item[\S 2] reviews properties of right proper and simplicial model categories, looking more specifically at simplicial model categories of functors.\N\N\item[\S 3] summarizes both the homotopy functor calculus of \textit{T. G. Goodwillie} [\(K\)-Theory 4, No. 1, 1--27 (1990; Zbl 0741.57021); \(K\)-Theory 5, No. 4, 295--332 (1992; Zbl 0776.55008); Geom. Topol. 7, 645--711 (2003; Zbl 1067.55006)] and the discrete functor calculus of \textit{K. Bauer} et al. [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 367, No. 9, 6671--6718 (2015; Zbl 1332.55005)].\N\N\item[\S 4] recalls the approach to localization for model categories [\textit{A. K. Bousfield} and \textit{E. M. Friedlander}, Lect. Notes Math. 658, 80--130 (1978; Zbl 0405.55021)].\N\N\item[\S 5] applies Theorem 4.2 to obtain a model structure on \(\mathrm{Fun}\left(\mathcal{C},\mathcal{D}\right)\) in which the fibrant objects are homotopy functors, or functors that preserve weak equivalences.\N\N\item[\S 6] establishes the existence theorem of a model structure on the category \(\mathrm{Fun}\left(\mathcal{C},\mathcal{D}\right)\) whose fibrant objects are the \(n\)-excisive functors for a given \(n\).\N\N\item[\S 7] turns to the discrete functor, demonstrating that one can equip \(\mathrm{Fun}\left(\mathcal{C},\mathcal{D}\right)\) with a degree \(n\) model structure via the degree \(n\) approximation \(\Gamma\).\N\N\item[\S 8] presents the main theorem (Theorem 8.3).\N\N\item[\S 9] applies Theorem 8.3 to the \(n\)-excisive model structure.\N\N\item[\S 10] applies Theorem 8.3 to the degree \(n\) model structure.\N\end{itemize}
