Jan 25, 2023 at 11:59 comment added D.-C. Cisinski What I meant is that the theory of $n$-hyperlocalic $\infty$-topoi is easier to understand because it behaves more like the theory of $n$-topoi (because $n$-topoi for finite $n$ are hypercomplete), in particular when it comes to finding sites of definition.
Jan 25, 2023 at 11:59 comment added D.-C. Cisinski $n$-localic topoi are not hypercomplete, but we can still define "$n$-hyperlocalic topoi" as those $\infty$-topoi that are both hypercomplete and generated by their $(n-1)$-truncated objects (these are not $n$-localic topoi in the sense of HTT though). Then the operator $\tau_{\leq n-1}$ induces an equivalence from $n$-hyperlocalic topoi to $n$-topoi. This also implies that the assignment $X\mapsto X^\wedge$ defines an equivalence from $n$-localic topoi to $n$-hyperlocalic ones (that is far from being the identity, though).
Jan 25, 2023 at 4:59 comment added Mike Shulman One interesting observation about these "weakly $m$-localic" topoi is that (I think) the collection of them all is an $(m,2)$-category, like the collection of $m$-localic topoi.

added assumption of finite limits
Jan 25, 2023 at 4:53 comment added Mike Shulman @D.-C.Cisinski I still don't understand what you're saying. I said that an $n$-localic topos may NOT be hypercomplete. Rezk's example cited by Marc shows this.
Jan 25, 2023 at 4:53 comment added Mike Shulman @MarcHoyois Thanks, I see!
Jan 24, 2023 at 19:02 comment added Marc Hoyois If $Shv(X)^{hyp}$ is $n$-localic then it must agree with $Shv(X)$ since they have the same $(n-1)$-truncated objects and the latter is $0$-localic. But in Rezk's example $Shv(X)$ is not hypercomplete.
Jan 24, 2023 at 7:01 comment added D.-C. Cisinski Yes, localic $n$-topoi need to be hypercomplete. What I meant is that we can characterize $n$-localic $\infty$-topoi as those hypercomplete $\infty$-topoi that are generated by their $(n-1)$-truncated objects (but a general $\infty$-topos generated by its truncated objects need not be hypercomplete). I also meant that Marc's concerns about having a site with finite limits are not really important because we restrict ourselves to hypercomplete topoi anyway.
Jan 23, 2023 at 18:51 comment added Mike Shulman @D.-C.Cisinski What do you mean by "restrict ourselves to hypercomplete $(\infty,1)$-topoi"? Certainly an $n$-localic topos need not be hypercomplete?
Jan 23, 2023 at 18:50 comment added Mike Shulman @MarcHoyois How do you conclude that it can't be $n$-localic?
Jan 23, 2023 at 16:46 comment added Marc Hoyois It seems that it fails even when $n=0$: there is an example of Charles Rezk of a topological space whose hypercomplete sheaves are presheaves on a poset, so that the latter cannot be $n$-localic for any finite $n$. So it seems "flatness" for functors to $\infty$-topoi is strictly stronger than for $n$-topoi, which is similar to what happens with "dense" subsites.
Jan 23, 2023 at 10:25 comment added D.-C. Cisinski Since $(n-1)$-truncated objects are stable under finite limits, if we restrict ourselves to hypercomplete $(\infty,1)$-topoi, it looks like being $n$-localic really means being an hypercomplete left exact localization of a category of presheaves on an $(n,1)$-category. In particular, presheaves of $\infty$-groupoids on a $(n,1)$-category form a hypercomplete $(\infty,1)$-topos generated by its $(n-1)$-truncated objects and thus define a $n$-localic topos.
Jan 22, 2023 at 17:49 comment added Mike Shulman If it's not true, then I would also want to assume finite limits for the class I'm interested in.
Jan 22, 2023 at 17:48 comment added Mike Shulman @MarcHoyois Good question. It's true when $n=0$, right? I would be surprised if it weren't true; I assumed the assumption of finite limits was just to avoid talking about flat functors.
Jan 22, 2023 at 8:56 comment added Marc Hoyois Is it really true that presheaves on a $n$-category form an $n$-localic $\infty$-topos? The statement in HTT assumes that the $n$-category has finite limits.
