Abstract: A version of Dwyer-Kan localization in the context of infinity-categories and simplicial categories is presented. Some results of the classical papers by Dwyer and Kan on simplicial localization are reproven and generalized. It is proven that a Quillen pair of model categories gives rise to an adjoint pair of the DK localizations. Also a result on localization of a family of infinity-categories is proven. This, in particular, is applied to localization of symmetric monoidal infinity-categories, where some (partial) results are obtained.


This paper gives results on Dwyer-Kan localisations in the context of \(\infty\)-categories. The localisations are described in terms of a universal property. The results are applied to the underlying \(\infty\)-categories of model categories; in particular it is shown that a Quillen adjunction between model categories yields an adjunction between the underlying \(\infty\)-categories. For suitable fibred \(\infty\)-categories it is shown that the fibres of the localisation map are equivalent to the localisations of the fibres. There are some partial results on symmetric monoidal \(\infty\)-categories.
