Abstract

We prove that an enriched ∞-category is completely determined by its enriched presheaf category together with a `marking' by the representable presheaves. More precisely, for any presentably monoidal ∞-category V we construct an equivalence between the category of V-enriched ∞-categories and a certain full sub-category of the category of presentable V-module categories equipped with a functor from an ∞-groupoid. This effectively allows us to reduce many aspects of enriched ∞-category theory to the theory of presentable ∞-categories. As applications, we use Lurie's tensor product of presentable ∞-categories to construct a tensor product of enriched ∞-categories with many desirable properties -- including compatibility with colimits and appropriate monoidality of presheaf functors -- and compare it to existing tensor products in the literature. We also re-examine and provide a model-independent reformulation of the notion of univalence (or Rezk-completeness) for enriched ∞-categories. Our comparison result relies on a monadicity theorem for presentable module categories which may be of independent interest.
