Abstract

We prove that for a bifibration P between small categories, the lenght of the cup product in the kernel of the induced morphism in the Baues-Wirsching cohomology with coefficients in any natural system is a lower bound for the homotopic sectional category (also called Svarc genus). Our results extend classical Svarc type inequalties to the categorical setting and introduce a computationally efficient method via a reduced cochain complex for Baues-Wirching cohomology.
