Morphisms of fibered categories which are compatible with the chosen cleavages

Let $\pi \colon F \rightarrow C$ and $\pi' \colon F' \rightarrow C$ be two fibered categories over the category $C$. A morphism from $\pi \colon F \rightarrow C$ to $\pi' \colon F' \rightarrow C$ is a ...

What is a correct notion of an internal pseudofunctor?

Let $C$ be a category internal to a category $K$. It is well known (for example see Proposition 2.4 in the paper Higher Dimensional Algebra VI: Lie 2-Algebra by Baez and Crans https://digitalcommons....

Schemes as categories fibered in thin groupoids

Every time I start to read about schemes from a birds-eye view (like in the introduction to The Geometry of Schemes by Eisenbud and Harris) I get really excited; they sound like a categorical approach ...

Freely adding comprehensions

If $P:T^{\rm op}\to \rm Cat$ is a hyperdoctrine with at least products in the fiber categories, then there is a way of "freely" adding Lawvere-style comprehension to it. The base category $...

Can we show that a functor is a fibration without choosing a cleavage?

Is there a standard method for showing that a functor $F:\mathcal{C}\to\mathcal{D}$ is a fibration, aside from constructing a cleavage? In the proof of the Grothendieck construction, the fibration we ...

Relationship between enriched, internal, and fibered categories

In this question, let $(\mathcal{V}, \otimes, [-,-], e)$ be a nice enough symmetric monoidal closed bicomplete category. The usual set-based Category theory has been generalized in many directions, ...

Fiberwise skeleton vs. category of isomorphism types

What is the relationship (if any) between the process of taking a skeleton of a category, taking a fibered skeleton of a fibered category, and taking isomorphism classes of a category as objects of a ...

Left/right adjoints to core/Cartesian inclusions

Let $p:E\to B$ be a fibration and let $Cart(E)$ denote the subcategory of $E$ with all objects but only Cartesian arrows. Since all isomorphisms in $E$ are Cartesian, we naturally have inclusion ...

Fibration on the category of Lie pseudoalgebras implementing comorphisms

I am trying to understand comorphisms of Lie pseudoalgebras from the point of view of fibred categories, but failing miserably so far. My question would be: Is there a (op)fibration $\mathrm{LiePs} \...

Infinititesimal Automorphisms intuition (algebraic stacks)

Let $F$ be a category cofibered in groupoids over category $C$. Given a morphism $x'\to x$ in $F$ lying over a morphism $A′\to A$ in $C$, there is an induced homomorphism $\operatorname{Aut} A'(x')\to ...

Is there any relation between two pseudofunctors associated to two different cleavages of the same fibered category?

It is well known that given a Fibered category $P_F: E \rightarrow C$ with a cleavage $K$ we can construct a pseudofunctor $F_K: C^{op} \rightarrow Cat$. Now if one chooses a different cleavage $L$ ...

Partially fibered categories vs T-Multicategories

Short version: This is a reference request question. I would like to know if something has been written on the connection between $T$-multicategory (for $T$ a monad on a category $\mathcal{E}$), and ...

What is the geometric significance of fibered category theory in topos theory?

Often in topos theory, one starts with a geometric morphism $f: \mathcal Y \to \mathcal X$, but quickly passes to the Grothendieck fibration $U_f: \mathcal Y \downarrow f^\ast \to \mathcal X$, which ...

Choice free definition of category of descent data w.r.t a fibration?

Let $\mathsf C$ be a category and consider a pseudofunctor (non-strict 2-functor) $P:\mathsf C^{\text{op}}\to\mathsf{Cat}$. Given an arrow $f:X\to Y$ in $\mathsf C$, define the category of descent ...

Are non-algebraic stacks useful in algebraic geometry?

The title is a bit vague. What I want to know is if there is any geometric application of non-algebraic stacks. I know e.g. the category of coherent sheaves is an example. But I want to ask if people ...
