Let $\Gamma=(\Gamma_1\rightrightarrows \Gamma_0), \Gamma’=(\Gamma’_1\rightrightarrows \Gamma’_0)$ be Lie groupoids and $\Gamma_{\bullet} ,\Gamma’_{\bullet}$ be the simplicial manifolds associated to $\Gamma,\Gamma’$ respectively.

Question : If the simplicial manifolds $\Gamma_{\bullet}$ and $\Gamma’_{\bullet}$ are isomorphic, then, does it imply that $\Gamma=(\Gamma_1\rightrightarrows \Gamma_0)$ and $ \Gamma’=(\Gamma’_1\rightrightarrows \Gamma’_0)$ are Morita equivalent?

Has this been mentioned anywhere?

If the simplicial manifolds are isomorphic, then the groupoids are also isomorphic, since the nerve functor from groupoid objects in a category to simplicial objects in the same category is fully faithful.

So to answer your question: yes, but in a boring way.

    $\begingroup$ I think it is in a monograph by Duskin, but the usual proof for small categories and simplicial sets should adapt fine. This is originally due to Grothendieck, but there must be more recent treatments; I'll have to dig around. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Is it Simplicial methods and the interpretation of “triple” cohomology or Higher-dimensional torsors and the cohomology of topoi: the abelian theory or some other lecture notes. $\endgroup$ Jul 7, 2019 at 20:13
