Dec 19, 2013 at 15:21 comment added Gerald Edgar I wonder if there is any analyst who said, "Toposes are extremely important in modern mathematics."

Dec 18, 2013 at 19:05 comment added Tom LaGatta @Ryan, do you have any examples of toposes which might be useful to analysts, or any reason why toposes are of no interest to analysts? If not, I don't see what your comment has to do with my question, since I don't see any comments indicating confusion among readers.

Dec 18, 2013 at 16:20 comment added Ryan Budney Not to take away anything from topos theory, but I think it's common practice for near every under-represented theory to portray itself as extremely important to modern mathematics. It's probably more neutral to just say certain specific people believe subject X is important to modern mathematics, and make citations. This could eliminate a lot of confusion among readers.
