Jun 28, 2013 at 19:25 comment added Fernando Muro Ronald, you're right: ncatlab.org/nlab/show/simplicial+skeleton I really meant that I only knew that for groupoids. My idea is that coskeletal simplicial sets are Postnikov pieces, and this is true for Kan complexes, but not for arbitrary simplicial sets.
Jun 28, 2013 at 19:20 comment added Ronald Bernard Dear @FernandoMuro, are you saying this is false for categories that aren't groupoids? Why? I don't believe that.
Jun 28, 2013 at 19:07 comment added Fernando Muro The nerve of any groupoid.
Jun 28, 2013 at 18:55 comment added Ronald Bernard The nerve of any category is $2$-coskeletal, ok. Thank you!
Jun 28, 2013 at 18:43 comment added Fernando Muro Yes, nerves of groupoids don't have higher homotopy groups. They are coskeletal rather than skeletal.
Jun 28, 2013 at 18:26 comment added Ronald Bernard Dear @FernandoMuro, thanks for the comment. The nerve of a groupoid has all $\pi_n$ with $n\geq 2$ trivial, correct? I forgot this, sorry, then the Corollary answers the second question. Do you know if the nerve of a groupoid is $2$-skeletal, i.e. the same as its $2$-skeleton?
Jun 28, 2013 at 17:31 comment added Fernando Muro Concerning your first question, the problem is showing that $A$ preserves cofibrations, isn't it? I don't see it either, the explanation offered in 'A homotopy theory for stacks' is nor clear enough to me. About your second question, isn't this Corollary A.9 in 'Hypercovers and simplicial presheaves'? In this case, the argument in the proof does look convincing.
