The technique of localization becomes a method for imposing `relations' into these universal gadgets. The paper develops this formalism and discusses various applications, for instance to the study of homotopy colimits, the Dwyer-Kan theory of framings, and to the homotopy theory of schemes.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2000-07-11T19:55:33.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "homotopy theory", "universal homotopy theories", "model category", "formally adjoining homotopy colimits", "universal way" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2000math......7070D" } } }
