Explicit description of exponentials of étalé spaces
It is well known that the category $\mathit{Sh}(X)$ of sheaves of sets on a topological space $ X $ is a topos.
On the other hand, there exists a natural equivalence of categories between $\mathit{Sh}(...

On a weak notion of sheaves on topological spaces
First of all, I give my definition of weak sheaves:
By a weak sheaf on a topological space $ X $, we mean a presheaf
$F$ such that for all open covering $\{ U_i\}_{i\in I} $ of $X$ sheaf

When proving that singular cohomology of an appropriate space $X$ equals sheaf cohomology of $X$ with "values" (does one say that?) in the sheaf $\mathbb{Z}_X$ of locally constant functions, the ...
