Seely, R. A. G. (ed.), Category theory 1991. Proceedings of an international summer category theory meeting, held in Montréal, Québec, Canada, June 23-30, 1991. Providence, RI: American Mathematical Society. CMS Conf. Proc. 13, 267-283 (1992).
The author introduces a non-standard notion of homotopy coherent diagram on a category \(C\), which copes well with lax functors. He proves a realisation theorem (Proposition 5, based on Theorem 4): a homotopy coherent diagram gives a genuine functor on \(C\) with good properties. He also proves a version of Quillen’s Theorem B.
