Abstract
Abstract. We construct a discrete model of the homotopy theory of S 1-spaces. We define a category P with objects composed of a simplicial set and a cyclic set along with suitable compatibility data. P inherits a model structure from the model structures on the categories of simplicial sets and cyclic sets. We then show that there is a Quillen equivalence between P and the model category of S 1-spaces in which weak equivalences and fibrations are maps inducing weak equivalences and fibrations on passage to all fixed point sets. 1.
