   Format: MarkdownItexI tried to brush-up the entry [[fundamental infinity-groupoid]] which had been in a rather sorry state. Some things I did: * stated the definition (!) $Sing X$ * removed Ronnie's remark that there is a problem with this definition due to lack of chosen fillers and instead added Thomas Nikolaus's theorem that when you choose fillers to get an algebraic Kan complex $\Pi X$ there is (still) a direct proof of the homotopy hypothesis * made the statement that $Sing X$ is equivalently computed by the abstract $\infty$-topos-theoretic definition of fundamental $\infty$-groupoid a formal proposition.

   I tried to brush-up the entry fundamental infinity-groupoid which had been in a rather sorry state. Some things I did:

   • stated the definition (!) $Sing X$

   • removed Ronnie’s remark that there is a problem with this definition due to lack of chosen fillers and instead added Thomas Nikolaus’s theorem that when you choose fillers to get an algebraic Kan complex $\Pi X$ there is (still) a direct proof of the homotopy hypothesis

   • made the statement that $Sing X$ is equivalently computed by the abstract $\infty$-topos-theoretic definition of fundamental $\infty$-groupoid a formal proposition.

   Format: MarkdownItexThat looks good. I added a comment before the definition to the effect that we're choosing Kan complexes as a notion of $\infty$-groupoid in order to make that definition.
