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.

Reedy model structure on sSet

The weak equivalences in the Reedy model structure are levelwise, and in a simplicial set if there is a simplex of any dimension then there are simplices of all dimensions. Thus, the weak equivalence …

In what generality does the following statement hold: A fibration is acyclic if and only if ...

Consider sSet×sSet with the induced structure from sSet. The monoidal unit is (1,1) (which is trivially fibrant, as is the unit in any cartesian monoidal model category), and so an object of the form …

Find weak equivalences from fibrations and cofibrations

Charles and Jonathan have given good answers to (1), but here's another way to recover the weak equivalences from the cofibrations and fibrations, which I think is sometimes convenient. First of all, …

Model for the (infinity,1)-category of functors preserving certain homotopy limits

The $(\infty,1)$-category of presheaves on any small $(\infty,1)$-category $C$ is presented by the model structure of simplicial presheaves on any simplicial category which incarnates $C$. So if $M$ …

Model bicategories

Whether or not there are nontrivial examples, I would expect such a notion to be less useful than the classical one, because one of the points of the classical definition is to be able to use strict 1 …

The definition of Reedy category

If I'm not mistaken, here is an "even worse" counterexample than Charles'. Let $R$ be the walking isomorphism $(0\cong 1)$, let $R_+$ be $(0\to 1)$, and let $R_-$ be $(1\to 0)$. The conditions on de …

Co/fibrant replacements via coend calculus

Addressing this sort of question was one of the main goals of math/0610194. The best answer I was able to give is that if $B$ has a suitable model structure with respect to which $F$ is objectwise fi …

simplicial objects in a model category

No, it is not. If what you mean by $\rm colim_n$ is the actual colimit of $F$ as a diagram of shape $\Delta$, then this colimit is isomorphic to the coequalizer of the two maps $F([1]) \rightrightarr …

Is the projective model structure simplicial?

The general case is noted in A.3.3.4 in Higher topos theory. Actually it's quite easy to prove, using the characterization of simplicial model categories in terms of powers (cotensors), since the pow …

Reedy model structures on oplax limits

I think the paper I was thinking of when I asked this question was probably Markus Spitzweck, Homotopy limits of model categories over inverse index categories, JPAA 214:6 (2010) although he only …

Fibrant replacement of an injective model category of enriched diagrams

Section 8 of my paper All (∞,1)-toposes have strict univalent universes shows that under fairly general conditions, injective fibrant replacements can be given by cobar constructions (e.g. the dual of …

How to get by with only functorial cylindrical objects?

You might be interested in looking into enriched model categories. If $\mathcal{V}$ is a monoidal model category (with cofibrant unit, for simplicity) and $\mathcal{C}$ is a $\mathcal{V}$-model categ …

What determines a model structure?

Mark's answer explains why (1) cofibrations and fibrations do determine the model structure, and Charles' and Tom's examples show that (4) cofibrant objects and fibrant objects do not. For (2), any w …

Model category structures on categories of complexes in abelian categories

I don't think the existence of the dual "injective" model structure merits an "of course," since its generators are much less obvious to construct. However, it turns out that injective model structur …

Need M combinatorial for existence of injective model structure on $M^G$?

It seems very unlikely to me that you will be able to get any useful handle on the generating acyclic cofibrations in the injective model structure, even in simple cases like when $I$ is the delooping …
