Abstract

We provide an explicit and elementary construction of the Morita (∞,2)-category of a monoidal category which satisfies minimal conditions. We construct it as a 3-coskeletal 2-complicial set, in which the vertices encode the monoids, the edges encode the bimodules, the triangles encode the bimodule maps out of a balanced tensor product, and tetrahedra encode composition of bimodule maps. The marked edges encode invertible bimodules, and the marked triangles encode bimodule isomorphisms with a balanced tensor product.
