Model categories as a tool to resolve size issues for localizing categories

I have a rather basic question about one motivation for introducing model categories in David White's notes, as a possible way to overcome troubles with size issues appearing when localizing a ...

Size issues in localization $\mathcal{C}[\mathcal{W}^{-1}]$ category

When one starts with a locally small category $\mathcal{C}$ and wants to localize it at an appropriate choosen collection of morphisms $\mathcal{W}$, then in general one faces some size issues in the ...

Is hammock localization a localization in the sense of Lurie?

In a series of papers ([1], [2] and [3]), Dwyer and Kan introduced the hammock localization [2] as an effective technique to compute the simplicial localization of a model category [1]. This is meant ...

When do zigzags of weak equivalences detect isomorphisms in the localization?

The usual way to prove that two model categories are equivalent is to construct a zigzag of Quillen equivalences between them, but is it always possible? We can ask a more general question. ...

Ore localization and model structures

The question is this: Suppose C is a category, with a given multiplicatively closed set of morphisms S ⊆ C. The role of the denominator conditions on S is rather similar to the role of a Quillen ...

Colocal Objects in Enriched Bousfield Colocalizations

Let $C$ be a $V$-model category, and $\mathcal{K}$ a set of objects of $C$. Let me denote (derived) simplicial homotopy function complexes by $\text{Dmap}$ and derived $V$-function complexes by $\text{...

Monoidal structure on simplicial sheaves

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a site and let $sPh(\mathcal{C})_{proj}$ be the category of simplicial presheaves equipped with the projective model structure. This category is a closed monoidal model category (...

Example of a saturated class of morphisms which is not _obviously_ saturated?

By "saturated class of morphisms" in a category $\mathcal{C}$, I mean a subcategory $\mathcal{W} \subset \mathcal{C}$ such that the image of $\mathcal{W}$ in $\mathcal{C}[\mathcal{W}^{-1}]$ consists ...

Localizations of model categories and $\infty$-categories

I am interested in the relation between Bousfield localizations of model categories and localizations of $(\infty,1)$-categories. According to Hirschhorn's book we can form the left Bousfield ...

Weak equivalences of left Bousfield localizations

Suppose C is a complete and cocomplete category with two model structures (C0,F0,W0) and (C1,F1,W1) such that C0⊃C1, F0⊂F1, W0⊂W1. If necessary, the model structures can be assumed to be simplicial, ...

Does Wolbert's derived equivalence between $E_*^R$-local $R$-modules and $R_E$-modules come from a Quillen equivalence?

Let $R$ be a ring spectrum (in the world of EKMM $S$-modules) and let $E$ be a smashing $R$-module. Denote by $R_E$ the $E_*$-localization of $R$. By a theorem of Wolbert (Theorem 2 in Classifying ...

Is the localisation of a product of categories the product of the localisation?

Let $\cal C, \cal D$ be model categories. Hovey says in his monograph "Model Categories" that the homotopy category $\operatorname{Ho}(\cal C \times D)$ is isomorphic to $\operatorname{Ho}(\cal C) \...

Bousfield localization before and after taking homotopy

The ncatlab says: Under suitable conditions it should be true that for $C$ a model category whose homotopy category $\mathrm{Ho}(C)$ is a triangulated category the homotopy category of a left ...

Is there a notion of a “model category which admits left Bousfield localization?”

At a conference not too long ago I gave a talk on (left) Bousfield localization and was asked an interesting question afterwards. The question was whether I knew any examples of model categories which ...
