A Handbook of Model Categories, Paperback / softback Book

A Handbook of Model Categories Paperback / softback

Part of the Algebra and Applications series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book outlines a vast array of techniques and methods regarding model categories, without focussing on the intricacies of the proofs.

Quillen model categories are a fundamental tool for the understanding of homotopy theory.

While many introductions to model categories fall back on the same handful of canonical examples, the present book highlights a large, self-contained collection of other examples which appear throughout the literature.

In particular, it collects a highly scattered literature into a single volume. The book is aimed at anyone who uses, or is interested in using, model categories to study homotopy theory.

It is written in such a way that it can be used as a reference guide for those who are already experts in the field.

However, it can also be used as an introduction to the theory for novices.
