Factorization Systems on ∞-Categories: Un/Straightening and Monadicity
Abstract
We prove two structural results about factorization systems on ∞-categories. Firstly, we classify factorization systems on the total spaces of a class of fibrations of ∞-categories in terms of factorization systems on the base and the fibers. This will be interpreted as an un/straightening equivalence for ∞-categories equipped with a factorization system, using Juran's double ∞-categorical framework. Along the way, we develop the general theory of lifting through faithful functors of n-uple ∞-categories. Secondly, we prove that the forgetful functor from ∞-categories equipped with a factorization system to ∞-categories is a monadic right adjoint.
