May 10 at 15:52 | comment | added | Fernando Muro | The map $\Delta[k]\rightarrow *$ is a homotopy equivalence. | |
May 10 at 15:31 | comment | added | SetR | @FernandoMuro I suspected this must be the reason but I don't see how to use the fact that $\Delta[k]$ is contractible to prove this. Do you know of a reference? | |
May 10 at 15:16 | comment | added | Fernando Muro | 1. Yes, because $\Delta[k]$ is contractible. 2. Yes, at least if $X$ is a Kan complex, because the inclusion of vertices in $\Delta[k]$ is a cofibration. | |
