The Dold-Kan normalization functor reflects injectivity, surjectivity, and isomorphy.

Lemma 14.18.7. Let \mathcal{A} be an abelian category. Let f : U \to V be a morphism of simplicial objects of \mathcal{A}. If the induced morphisms N(f)_ i : N(U)_ i \to N(V)_ i are injective for all i, then f_ i is injective for all i. Same holds with “injective” replaced with “surjective”, or “isomorphism”.

Proof. This is clear from Lemma 14.18.6 and the definition of a splitting. \square
