AbstractThomas Streicher asked on the category theory mailing list whether every essential, hyperconnected, local geometric morphism is automatically locally connected. We show that this is not the case, by providing a counterexample.

This chapter introduces the concept of expansion of a geometric theory and develops some basic theory about it; it proves in particular that expansions of geometric theories induce geometric morphisms between the respective classifying toposes and that conversely every geometric morphism to the classifying topos of a geometric theory can be seen as arising from an expansion of that theory. The notion of hyperconnected-localic factorization of a geometric morphism is then investigated and shown to admit a natural description in the context of geometric theories. Further, the preservation, by ‘faithful interpretations’ of theories, of each of the conditions in the characterization theorem for theories of presheaf type established in Chapter 6 is discussed, leading to results of the form ‘under appropriate conditions, a geometric theory in which a theory of presheaf type faithfully interprets is again of presheaf type’.

In this chapter, by using the duality theorem established in Chapter 3, many ideas and concepts of elementary topos theory are transferred into the context of geometric logic; these notions notably include the coHeyting algebra structure on the lattice of subtoposes of a given topos, open, closed, quasi-closed subtoposes, the dense-closed factorization of a geometric inclusion, coherent subtoposes, subtoposes with enough points, the surjection-inclusion factorization of a geometric morphism, skeletal inclusions, atoms in the lattice of subtoposes of a given topos, the Booleanization and DeMorganization of a topos. An explicit description of the Heyting operation between Grothendieck topologies on a given category and of the Grothendieck topology generated by a given collection of sieves is also obtained, as well as a number of results about the problem of ‘relativizing’ a local operator with respect to a given subtopos.

Topos-theoretic semantics for modal logic usually uses structures induced by a surjective geometric morphism between toposes. This talk develops an algebraic generalization of this framework. We take internal adjoints between certain internal frames within a topos, which provides semantics for (intuitionistic) higher-oder modal logic.

AbstractThis paper gives a characterization of homotopy fibres of inverse image maps on groupoids of torsors that are induced by geometric morphisms, in terms of both pointed torsors and pointed cocycles, suitably defined. Cocycle techniques are used to give a complete description of such fibres, when the underlying geometric morphism is the canonical stalk on the classifying topos of a profinite group G. If the torsors in question are defined with respect to a constant group H, then the path components of the fibre can be identified with the set of continuous maps from the profinite group G to the group H. More generally, when H is not constant, this set of path components is the set of continuous maps from a pro-object in sheaves of groupoids to H, which pro-object can be viewed as a “Grothendieck fundamental groupoid”.

AbstractWe establish the existence and uniqueness of a factorization for geometric morphisms that generalizes the pure, complete spread factorization for geometric morphisms with a locally connected domain. A complete spread with locally connected domain over a topos is a geometric counterpart of a Lawvere distribution on the topos, and the factorization itself is of the comprehensive type. The new factorization removes the topologically restrictive local connectedness requirement by working with quasicomponents in topos theory. In the special case when the codomain topos of the geometric morphism coincides with the base topos, the factorization gives the locale of quasicomponents of the domain topos, or its ‘0-dimensional’ reflection.

Two elementary extensions of the topos axioms are given, each implying the topos has a local geometric morphism to a category of sets. The stronger one realizes sets as precisely the decidables of the topos, so there is a simple internal description of the range of validity of the law of excluded middle in the topos. It also has a natural geometric meaning. Models of the extensions in Grothendieck toposes are described.

Results of a representation-theoretic nature have played a major role in topos theory since the beginnings of the subject. For example, Deligne's theorem on coherent toposes, which says that every coherent topos has a continuous embedding into a topos of the form SetI for a discrete set I, is a typical result in the representation theory of toposes. (A continuous functor between toposes is the left adjoint of a geometric morphism. For Grothendieck toposes, it is exactly the same as a continuous functor between them, considered as sites with their canonical topologies. By a continuous functor between sites on left exact categories, we mean a left exact functor taking covers to covers.)A representation-like result for toposes typically asserts that a topos that satisfies some abstract conditions is related to a topos of some concrete kind; the relation between them is usually an embedding of the first topos in the second (concrete) one, for which the embedding satisfies some additional properties (fullness, etc.).

In [1], Julian Cole asked whether every topos is definable over a Boolean one. Peter Johnstone partially answered this in [2] (corollary 3·7) by giving an example of a topos admitting no bounded morphism to any Boolean topos. Here we give a simple example where boundedness is unnecessary.

We show that if {Gi}J ε I is a generating set for an (elementary) topos ℰ then {P(Gi)}iεI is a cogenerating set for x2130;. From this we show that if topos ℰ contains an object G whose subobjects generate ℰ, then ΩG is a cogenerator for ℰ. Let denote the topos of finite sets and functions. We also show that if ℰ1 is a topos and ℰ2 is a bounded -topos then every geometric morphism ℰ1 → ℰ2 is essential.
