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.

Monoidal structure on simplicial sheaves

Yes. This is well-known and can be deduced, for example, from the general statements in the last section of this paper of Barwick. Take $V$ to be the symmetric monoidal model category of simplicial …

A question about the morphisms in the homotopy category of dg-Cat

More generally one has the following statement: if $u : C \to D$ is a quasi-fully faithful functor of dg-categories, then the induced morphism of mapping spaces in the model category of dg-categories …

How to show the following two definitions of homotopy monomorphism are equivalent?

Let $sSet$ be the category of simplicial sets with the Quillen model structure. Define a homotopy monomorphism in $sSet$ to be a morphism whose homotopy fibres are empty or weakly contractible. In a …

Why do we need model categories?

This answer is an elaboration on Dylan's comments. 1) Let us define a homotopy theory to be a pair $(C, W)$, where $C$ is a category and $W$ is some class of morphisms called weak equivalences. (Let' …

Is dgCat a category or a 2-category?

The model structure on the category of dg-categories presents an $(\infty,1)$-category DGCat. This structure is essentially provided by the existence of mapping spaces (or mapping $\infty$-groupoids) …

When are homotopy categories of model categories closed modules over the homotopy category o...

I am not sure if this will answer your question, but it may at least point you in the right direction (or at least some direction). Let me start with some classical background. Let $C$ be a category …

An example of two cofibrant dg categories whose tensor product is not cofibrant

Let $\Delta^1_k$ be the $k$-linear dg-category with two objects $0$ and $1$, mapping complexes $$ Map(0,0) = [k], $$ $$ Map(0,1) = [k], $$ $$ Map(1,0) = [0], $$ $$ Map(1,1) = [k] $$ where $[k] …

A general theory of quasi-functors, generalizing from dg-categories to $\mathcal V$-categori...

In some sense, the "universal" version of this fact was proved by Blumberg-Gepner-Tabuada as Proposition 3.3 in this paper. That is, they proved the analogue for stable $\infty$-categories, which is t …
