Summary
This chapter reviews equivalences of homotopy theories between Multicat, the category of small multicategories and multifunctors, PermCat^st, the category of small permutative categories and strict monoidal functors, and PermCat^su, the category of small permutative categories and strictly unital symmetric monoidal functors. These equivalences are given by a free left adjoint to the endomorphism functor. This material provides an important foundation for that of Part 2.
