Relative left properness of colored operads
arXiv:1411.4668 · doi:10.2140/agt.2016.16.2691
Abstract
The category of -colored symmetric operads admits a cofibrantly generated model category structure. In this paper, we show that this model structure satisfies a relative left properness condition, i.e., that the class of weak equivalences between -cofibrant operads is closed under cobase change along cofibrations. We also provide an example of Dwyer which shows that the model structure on -colored symmetric operads is not left proper.
