Quillen equivalences for truncated multicomplexes

Jiahao Hu

Abstract

We establish Quillen equivalences between successive truncations of multicomplexes for the model structures that detect weak equivalences simultaneously on prescribed pages of the two associated spectral sequences. In particular, the natural comparison from $4$-multicomplexes to bicomplexes, which is relevant to the comparison between almost complex and complex geometry, is a Quillen equivalence. This answers a question of Cirici, Livernet, and Whitehouse.
