Examples and cofibrant generation of effective Kan fibrations

Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2025

We will make two contributions to the theory of effective Kan fibrations, which are a more explicit version of the notion of a Kan fibration, a notion which plays a fundamental role in simplicial homotopy theory. We will show that simplicial Malcev algebras are effective Kan complexes and that the effective Kan fibrations can be seen as the right class in an algebraic weak factorization system. In addition, we will introduce two strengthenings of the notion of an effective Kan fibration, the symmetric effective and degenerate-preferring Kan fibrations, and show that the previous results hold for these strengthenings as well.
