Lemma 14.3. If U→VU\rightarrow V is a categorical equivalence between Segal spaces, then U^→V^\widehat{U}\rightarrow\widehat{V} is a Reedy weak equivalence.

[05WK]

Proof. It is clear from the definition that U×E~≈U~×E~\widetilde{U\times E}\approx\widetilde{U}\times\widetilde{E}, and E~\widetilde{E} is contractible by (14.2). Thus categorically homotopic maps are taken to homotopic maps by the completion operator, and hence completion takes categorical equivalences to homotopy equivalences. ∎
