Definition 14.18.1. Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a category which admits finite nonempty coproducts. We say a simplicial object $U$ of $\mathcal{C}$ is split if there exist subobjects $N(U_m)$ of $U_m$, $m \geq 0$ with the property that $$\tag{14.18.1.1} \coprod\nolimits_{\varphi : [n] \to [m]\text{ surjective}} N(U_m) \longrightarrow U_n$$ is an isomorphism for all $n \geq 0$. If $U$ is an $r$-truncated simplicial object of $\mathcal{C}$ then we say $U$ is split if there exist subobjects $N(U_m)$ of $U_m$, $r \geq m \geq 0$ with the property that (14.18.1.1) is an isomorphism for $r \geq n \geq 0$.

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a category which admits finite nonempty coproducts.
We say a simplicial object $U$ of $\mathcal{C}$ is {\it split}
if there exist subobjects $N(U_m)$ of $U_m$, $m \geq 0$
with the property that

\label{equation-splitting}
\coprod\nolimits_{\varphi : [n] \to [m]\text{ surjective}}
N(U_m)
\longrightarrow
U_n

is an isomorphism for all $n \geq 0$. If $U$ is an $r$-truncated
simplicial object of $\mathcal{C}$ then we say $U$ is {\it split}
if there exist subobjects $N(U_m)$ of $U_m$, $r \geq m \geq 0$
with the property that (\ref{equation-splitting})
is an isomorphism for $r \geq n \geq 0$.
