A model category is a category equipped with notions of weak equivalences, fibrations and cofibrations allowing to run arguments similar to those of classical homotopy theory.

How to simplify the proof of right-properness?

To complete the argument you need to apply K. Brown's Lemma. Call your model category $\mathcal{M}$, then the map $Z \to Y$ induces a pullback functor $\mathcal{M} \downarrow Y \to \mathcal{M} \downar …

Cube Lemma on a cofibrantly generated (almost) model category

This is not an answer in a full generality, but it is certainly not the case if the domains of generating acyclic cofibrations are cofibrant. (I have a hard time thinking of an example of a model cate …

geometric realization on $\mathbf{sTop}$

The results on homotopy invariance of the geometric realization of simplicial spaces go back at least to May's The Geometry of Iterated Loop Spaces, although he doesn't explicitly mention model catego …

Alternative characterization of homotopy equivalence

EDIT: This is an old question, but I have stumbled upon it by accident and realized that my answer is wrong. It turns out that genuine homotopy equivalences cannot be characterized in terms of their h …

Morphisms every pushout of which is a weak equivalence

Here's a suggestion. Hopkins uses the name flat map for a morphism such that every pushout along it is a homotopy pushout. Rezk uses the name sharp map for the dual notion. (Roughly speaking, I think …

Is the category of $G$-spaces a model category?

Yes, assuming that by "expected $G$-homotopy extension property" you mean the Serre $G$-cofibrations, not the Hurewicz $G$-cofibrations. A very explicit reference is Proposition A.1.18 in Schwede's Gl …

recognising weak equivalences of simplicial sets

$\newcommand{\Ex}{\mathrm{Ex}}\newcommand{\Sd}{\mathrm{Sd}}$Consider the square $$\begin{CD} X @>{\sim}>> \Ex^\infty X \\ @V{f}VV @VV{\Ex^\infty f}V \\ Y @>>{\sim}> \Ex^\infty Y \textrm{.} \\ \end{CD …

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

It is true for arbitrary products of model categories (or just cofibration categories) as proven in Theorem 7.1.1 of http://arxiv.org/abs/math/0610009v4. It is also true for finite products of arbitr …

Reedy model structures on oplax limits

You may be thinking of Johnson, Mark W. On modified Reedy and modified projective model structures. Theory Appl. Categ. 24 (2010), No. 8, 179–208. but his constructions (Definitions 3.3 and 5.2) hav …

Does the Monoid Axiom hold for k-spaces?

It seems to me that there is a relatively simple answer to this question but perhaps I am overlooking something. The category of K-spaces does satisfy the monoid axiom. (If I read the question correc …

When do colimits agree with homotopy colimits?

I don't think we can expect to have one general answer to this question, only a collection of unrelated specialized results. Here are two more: In the category of simplicial sets all filtered colimi …

Can one make the category of pairs of topological spaces a model category?

As Tyler Lawson points out you can use the category of all diagrams on $[1]$. Then the projective and injective model structures are both instances of Reedy model structures. This is discussed in Sect …

Saturated classes and cofibrantly generated model structures

It doesn't make a difference as long as we restrict attention to compactly generated saturated classes, i.e. cofibrantly generated ones where generators can be chosen to have $\aleph_0$-small domains. …

"Joyal type" model structure for (n,1)-categories?

I don't know if this will work with the definition of $(n, 1)$-categories exactly as stated by Lurie, but it will work with a reasonable modification. Definition 2.3.4.1 from HTT basically says that …

Is there a model structure on (strict?) Monoidal Categories?

I'm not sure about the case of general monoidal categories. (Although I seem to recall a remark that there is no such structure since the category of monoidal categories is not cocomplete and a suitab …
