Thomason's colimit theorem for the double category of elements
Abstract
We show that, for any 2-category C and 2-functor F C Cat, the double category of elements C F introduced by Grandis and Par\'e satisfies a version of Thomason's colimit theorem; that is, there is a weak homotopy equivalence B hocolim F B(C F).
