Abstract

This survey of model categories and their applications in algebraic topology is intended as an introduction for non homotopy theorists, in particular category theorists and categorical topologists. We begin by defining model categories and the homotopy-like equivalence relation on their morphisms. We then explore the question of compatibility between monoidal and model structures on a category. We conclude with a presentation of the Sullivan minimal model of rational homotopy theory, including its application to the study of Lusternik–Schnirelmann category.
