Abstract:

Let ${\mathbf {Y}}:I \to$ Simplicial Sets be a functor. We give a sufficient condition for the map ${\text {ho}}\lim \limits _ \to {\mathbf {Y}} \to \lim \limits _ \to {\mathbf {Y}}$ to be a weak equivalence. Then we apply this to determine the Artin-Mazur homotopy type of the functor category Funct($I$, Sets).
