Dec 31, 2009 at 23:05 comment added Reid Barton Yes, these are the two model category structures in which the cofibrations are the monomorphisms (at least under AC). I gave a rather ad-hoc description of the category I wanted to consider, but it falls into a family of more interesting ones: presheaves on the category of nonempty totally ordered sets of cardinality <= n+1 form a model category whose objects we can identify with the n-coskeletal simplicial sets, and whose homotopy category is that of (n-1)-types. (This works for -1 <= n <= infinity.)
Dec 31, 2009 at 19:02 comment added Mike Shulman Is there a reason you want to treat empty sets specially? I think there's a simpler model structure in which the cofibrations are the injections, the fibrations are the surjections (or split surjections, if we don't assume choice), and everything is a weak equivalence. (I.e. it is just a single weak factorization system.)
