On fibrations between internal groupoids

In order to deduce the internal version of the Brown exact sequence from the internal version of the Gabriel-Zisman exact sequence, we characterize fibrations and $\ast$-fibrations in the 2-category of internal groupoids in terms of the comparison functor from certain pullbacks to the corresponding strong homotopy pullbacks. A similar analysis in the category of arrows allows us to give a characterization of protomodular categories using strong homotopy kernels.

Bipullbacks of fractions and the snail lemma

We establish conditions giving the existence of bipullbacks in bicategories of fractions. We apply our results to construct a $π_0$-$π_1$ exact sequence associated with a fractor between groupoids internal to a pointed exact category.

The snail lemma for internal groupoids

We establish a generalized form both of the Gabriel-Zisman exact sequence associated with a pointed functor between pointed groupoids, and of the Brown exact sequence associated with a fibration of pointed groupoids. Our generalization consists in replacing pointed groupoids with groupoids internal to a pointed regular category with reflexive coequalizers.
