Abstract

The class of shape equivalences for a pair (C, K) of categories is the orthogonal of K, that is Σ = K . Then Σ is internally saturated (Σ = Σ ). On the other hand, every internally saturated class of morphisms Σ Mor(C), is the class of shape equivalences for some pair (C, K). Moreover, every class of shape equivalences Σ enjoys a calculus of left fractions and such a fact allows one to use techniques from categories of fractions to obtain conditions for Σ to be reflective or proreflective in C.
