Cofibrantly generated model structures for functor calculus

Lauren Bandklayder, Julia E Bergner, Rhiannon Griffiths, Brenda Johnson and Rekha Santhanam

Algebraic & Geometric Topology 25 (2025) 3931–3973
Abstract

Model structures for many kinds of functor calculus can be obtained by applying a theorem of Bousfield to a suitable category of functors. We give a general criterion for when model categories obtained via this approach are cofibrantly generated. Our examples recover the homotopy functor and n-excisive model structures of Biedermann and Röndigs, but also include a model structure for the discrete functor calculus of Bauer, Johnson, and McCarthy.

Keywords
