Definition 17.1.4 (Factorization system). A factorization system on an \(\infty \)-category \(C\) consists of a pair of wide subcategories \((\Ll , \Rr )\) of \(C\) satisfying the following conditions:

(1)

Orthogonality: Every morphism \(l \in \Ll \) is left orthogonal to every morphism \(r \in \Rr \).

(2)

Factorization: Every morphism \(f\) in \(C\) admits a factorization \(f \simeq r \circ l\), where \(l \in \Ll \) and \(r \in \Rr \).
