Cartesianity of exponentiation in infinity-categories
Cartesianity of exponentiation in infinity-categories
Let be the category of spaces and let be the category of infinity-categories. For an infinity-category , write for the functor sending a space to its corresponding functor category into . A functor is cartesian when it admits cartesian lifts of morphisms. If is a morphism in and is an object of the relevant total category, its proposed cartesian lift is .
Cartesianity conjecture. If is an infinity-category, then
is cartesian, where the cartesian lift of to is .
This conjecture is introduced to support the construction of categories involving mixed-variance applications of the simplicial homotopy principle. The source says that proving it would require showing that cocartesian and cartesian functors are exponentiable; no resolution is given.
