View on Github →feat(AlgebraicTopology): StrictSegal simplicial sets are quasicategories (#19270)
We prove that any simplicial set satisfying the StrictSegal
condition introduced in #18499 is a quasicategory. This implies that the nerve of a category is a quasicategory.
We construct a solution to the lifting problem against hornInclusion n i
as a spineToSimplex
of the path in the image of the spine of the standard simplex.
To prove that this extension restricts to the appropriate map on the horn, we apply spineInjective
, reducing the question of equality between two n
-simplices in X
to that of equality between the paths along their spines. The remainder of the proof is a straightforward application of basic properties relating spines of simplices to their faces.
