   Format: MarkdownIt is a bit confusing: a direct summand of an infinity groupoid. How does this look like, e.g. what is in reality a direct sum of Kan complexes ? (I don't mean the uni property but explicit description).

   Format: MarkdownIt just means: the two oo-groupoids each consist of a bunch of connected components <latex> C = \coprod_i C_i </latex> and <latex> D = \coprod_j D_j </latex> and a morphism <latex> C \to D</latex> satisfies this condition if the component maps <latex> C_i \to D_{j(i)} </latex> are equivalences and the function <latex> i \mapsto j(i) </latex> is injective.

   Format: MarkdownItexSo in particular, in the $(\infty,1)$-topos of topological spaces, an inclusion (even a nice one) need not be an $(\infty,1)$-monomorphism. Do anyone here knows of a different notion for a monomorphism in an $(\infty,1)$-topos that will include (nice) inclusions of topological spaces?

   Format: MarkdownItexI don't have such a good feel for that $(\infty,1)$-category as I should, but here's one general fact that may be relevant: in an $(\infty,1)$-category (and already in a $(2,1)$-category, a [[regular monomorphism in an (infinity,1)-category|regular monomorphism]] need not be a monomorphism. So if nice inclusions aren't monomorphisms, they may yet be regular (or strong, extremal, etc) monomorphisms.

   Format: TextThanks. I want to carefully examine the other notions you mentioned (regular, strong external), but except the nLab stubs I couldn't find any references. Can you (or someone) refer me to a place with a bit more details, i.e. other than the definition itself?

   Format: MarkdownItexIn $(\infty,1)$-categories, I don't know; Urs would. In $1$-categories, the nLab has somewhat better coverage of the dual epimorphisms; see [[epimorphism#Variations]] for discussion of how the different forms relate.

   Format: MarkdownItexI think it's misleading to talk about "the $(\infty,1)$-topos of topological spaces"; it's better to call it the $(\infty,1)$-topos of $\infty$-groupoids. Topological spaces are a particular way to present $\infty$-groupoids, but a *lot* of information is lost in passing from a topological space to its fundamental $\infty$-groupoid. In particular, *every* morphism of $\infty$-groupoids can be presented by a subspace inclusion of topological spaces, namely a relative cell complex (a cofibration in the Quillen model structure).
