  1. starting discussion post

    with the advent of synthetic approaches to (,1)(\infty,1)-category theory like \infty-cosmos theory and simplicial type theory, there should be a definition of essentially surjective (,1)(\infty,1)-functor which does not make explicit reference to set-theoretic models.

    For morphisms between \infty-groupoids, essential surjectivity is equivalent to (-1)-connectivity. So one needs the (,2)(\infty,2)-topos-version of (1)(-1)-connectiveness, I’d think.

    A functor between \infty-categories is essentially surjective iff the induced functor between their cores is an effective epimorphism.

    Isn’t the reference to simplicially enriched categories is superfluous here? Since the point is to invoke the homotopy category construction h:(,1)Cat(1,1)Cath : (\infty,1)Cat \to (1,1)Cat to reduce the question from (,1)(\infty,1)-categories to that of (1,1)(1,1)-categories. I guess that passes the buck to whether you’re happy with the definitions of hh and defining “essentially surjective” for (1,1)-categories

    Somebody like Mike Shulman or Emily Riehl might know more about the situation but I don’t think anybody has formally defined the homotopy category construction in simplicial type theory yet. Don’t know anything about infinity-cosmos theory so can’t comment on that.

  2. mentioning simplicial enriched categories is not needed as the construction should work for any model of \infty-category

    also added alternate definition mentioned in the discussion page using the core rather than homotopy categories.
