The Street–Roberts conjecture for complicial spaces

Less than 1 year old · traced to

Let (\bDeltan)(\bDelta^n) denote the oriented simplex, let τn−1(\bDeltan)\tau_{n-1}(\bDelta^n) denote its (n−1)(n-1)-truncation, and let (Δn)t(\Delta^n)^t be the stratified simplicial space obtained from the standard simplex with the indicated stratification. A map of stratified simplicial spaces is local with respect to complicial spaces when it induces an equivalence on mapping spaces into every complicial space. Street–Roberts conjecture. For every natural number nn, the map

(Δn)t→N(τn−1(\bDeltan))(\Delta^n)^t \to {\mathrm N}(\tau_{n-1}(\bDelta^n))

of stratified simplicial spaces is local with respect to complicial spaces. If true, this would provide a direct comparison between complicial spaces and Segal presheaves on the orientals, and hence facilitate comparisons between models of ∞\infty-category theory. The untruncated analogue is stated as a theorem in the paper, but the truncated, marked version remains unresolved in the supplied source.
