    The accessibility rank of weak equivalences

    Full text link
    We study the accessibility properties of trivial cofibrations and weak equivalences in a combinatorial model category and prove an estimate for the accessibility rank of weak equivalences. In particular, we show that the class of weak equivalences between simplicial sets is finitely accessible.Comment: The main result is improved and its proof is simplified.
