The equivalence between type-theoretic and Grothendieck–Maltsiniotis c9-categories

Let Scat\mathcal{S}_{\mathrm{cat}} be the category of type-theoretic models described in the paper, and let T\mathcal{T} be the canonical coherator for Grothendieck–Maltsiniotis ω\omega-categories. An ω\omega-category in the Grothendieck–Maltsiniotis sense is a functor C:TopSetC:\mathcal{T}^{\operatorname{op}}\to\operatorname{Set} such that CopC^{\operatorname{op}} preserves globular sums. Equivalence conjecture. The category Scat\mathcal{S}_{\mathrm{cat}} is equivalent to T\mathcal{T}. This would identify the type-theoretic definition with the canonical coherator underlying the Grothendieck–Maltsiniotis definition; the paper leaves the detailed comparison for future work.
