Abstract
By theorems of Carlson and Renaudin, the theory of (∞, 1)-categories
embeds in that of prederivators. The purpose of this paper is to give a two-fold answer to the inverse problem: understanding which prederivators model (∞, 1)-categories, either strictly or in a homotopical sense. First, we characterize which prederivators arise on
the nose as prederivators associated to quasicategories. Next, we put a model structure on the category of prederivators and strict natural transformations, and prove a Quillen equivalence with the Joyal model structure for quasicategories.
