Isbell duality between algebras and sheaves
nLab says on Isbell duality, the following:
A general abstract adjunction
$(\mathcal{O} \dashv \operatorname{Spec}) : \mathrm{CoPresheaves} \leftrightarrows \mathrm{Presheaves}$
relates (higher) ...

Refinement of hypercovers by ordinary covers
I am asking for references and discussions of statements of the form
Every bounded hypercover can be refined by an ordinary cover
By "bounded" I mean "finite height". E.g., are ...

Topos with enough projectives
It is often observed that every presheaf topos has enough projectives, as a corollary of the result that representables are projective and every presheaf is a colimit of representables. We also have ...

Colimits of quasi-coherent sheaves on a ringed space
Recall from the stacks project that a sheaf of modules $F$ on a ringed space $X$ is called quasi-coherent if there is an open covering $\{U_i\}$ such that each $F|_{U_i}$ has a presentation, i.e. is ...

Why do Kashiwara and Schapira require a base ring of finite global dimension?
In the book "Sheaves on Manifolds" by Kashiwara and Schapira, they work always with sheaves of $R$-modules, where $R$ is a ring of finite global dimension.
Why do they do this, what care ...

Constructible sheaves on general stratified spaces
I am not an expert in the field, so my question might be rather standard. Let $X$ be a compact metric space. Assume that $X=\cup_{i=1}^NS_i$ is a finite disjoint union of locally closed topological ...

Do 'change of coefficients' functors for sheaves commute with the four functors (formalism)?
For a morphism $f$ of varieties over a field of characteristic $\neq l$ I can consider the functors $Rf_*$, $f^\ast$, $f_!$, and $f^!$ both for the corresponding derived categories of 'all' (...

Topos as a totally cocomplete object in a 2-category CART

Infinity-categorical exceptional push-forward
Classically, if $f:X\to Y$ is a map of locally compact Hausdorff topological spaces, one can define the exceptional push-forward functor $f_!:Sh(X;k)\to Sh(Y;k)$ among $k$-valued sheaves for, say, a ...

Can one construct Freyd-Mitchell's embeddings that respect sheafifications?
For a certain presheaf $P$ with values in an abelian category $A$ satisfying AB5 and its sheafification $S$ (with respect to a small Grothendieck site) I would like to prove: $S(f):S(X)\to S(Y)$ is ...

Equivariant sheafs and $G$ actions on modules

What kind of ringed space $X$ has the property that a locally free sheaf is projective in Qcoh$(X)$?
It is well known that for an affine scheme $X$, every finitely generated locally free sheaf $\mathcal{E}$ is projective in the category Qcoh$(X)$. i.e. the functor $\text{Hom}_{\text{Qcoh}(X)}(\...

What are the easiest cases of base change (for sheaves on sites)?

Do inverse images respect flabby sheaves?
Let $i:Y\to X$ be a closed embedding of varieties, and let $S$ be a flabby \'etale (or Nisnevich) sheaf of abelian groups on $X$. Is $i^*S$ flabby also? I am mostly interested in the case when $S=i_{x*...

On inverse images with respect to Zariski-etale topology.
For a variety $X$ I define its Zariski-etale site as follows: the category is the category of etale $X$-schemes, and the coverings are Zariski ones. Note that this topology is more coarse than the ...
