The Grothendieck topology of closed immersions on schemes
Let $S$ be a scheme. Let's define a Grothendick topology on $\mathrm{Sch}/S$ where a covering family $\{f_i:Z_i\rightarrow X\}_{i\in I}$ on an $S$-scheme $X$ is a collection of closed immersions of $S$...

Why care about Grothendieck topology? [closed]
Noah Schweber said here the following:
Why would you want a notion of sheaf theory for objects more general
than topological spaces? Well, the original motivation (to my
understanding) was to ...

Grothendieck topology on a scheme equivalent to the circle
Suppose a class of morphisms of schemes is reasonable enough so that we can associate a small site to any scheme (just like small étale site). Is there a simple class of morphisms such that there is a ...

When can a scheme be recovered from its descent groupoid?
Suppose that $ Y $ is a scheme and $ f\colon X\to Y $ a covering of $ Y $ in some Grothendieck topology on the category of schemes (i.e. if $\{ U_i\to Y\}$ is a covering in the topological sense, then ...

Sections of morphisms up to fppf covering
Let $f:X\to S$ be a finite type affine morphism of schemes where $S$ is an integral noetherian affine regular scheme whose function field is of characteristic zero.
Assume that all geometric fibers ...

Are there any useful Grothendieck topologies for which the H1 of $GL_n$ is not the set of rank $n$ vector bundles
Let n be a positive integer and X a scheme. Then for all the Grothendieck topologies I know (Zariski, etale, fppf) the set $H^1(X,GL_n)$ is the set of (isomorphism classes of) rank $n$ vector bundles.

Is there a direct proof that affine schemes are fppf quasi-compact?
Let $A$ be a (commutative) ring. A family $(B_i)_{i\in I}$ of $A$-algebras is said to be an fppf cover if it satisfies three properties: (1) each $B_i$ is flat as an $A$-module, (2) each $B_i$ is ...
