Title: An Introduction to Infinity Categories
Abstract:
Roughly speaking, an infinity category is a category in which we have
2-morphisms between the regular morphisms, 3-morphisms between those, and
in general, n-morphisms between (n-1)-morphisms for arbitrarily large n.
In this talk, I will present two geometric model for discussing infinity
categories, quasi-categories and simplicially enriched categories, and
briefly outline their equivalence. I will then walk through some basic
constructions in category theory such as functors, over/under categories
and possibly (co)limits in the infinity category setting.
