On d-Categories and d-Operads (1902.04061v1)
Published 9 Feb 2019 in math.AT and math.CT
Abstract: We extend the theory of d-categories, by providing an explicit description of the right mapping spaces of the d-homotopy category of an $\infty$-category. Using this description, we deduce an invariant $\infty$-categorical characterization of the d-homotopy category. We then proceed to develop an analogous theory of d-operads, which model $\infty$-operads with (d -1)-truncated multi-mapping spaces, and prove analogous results for them.
