A topos is a category that behaves very much like the category of sets and possesses a good notion of localization. Related to topos are: sheaves, presheaves, descent, stacks, localization,...

A site is subcanonical if and only if its sheafification is fully faithful?

You already proved that: $$ Hom_C(X,Y) \simeq (ay Y)( X)$$ But $Hom_C(X,Y)$ is by definition $(y Y)(X)$, and all those isomorphism are functorial in $X$ so you have proved that $(y Y)( X) \simeq ay …

Toposes with only preorders of points

$(i) \Leftrightarrow (ii)$ is true and is Proposition C.2.4.14 in Peter Johnstone's Sketches of an elephant. More generally he shows that a bounded geometric morphism $f: \mathcal{E} \to \mathcal{S}$ …

What about the enough points requirement in Bekes "Theories of presheaf type"?

It is actually not that simple to contruct geometric theories whose classifying toposes do not have enough points. Of course they exist, as any Grothendieck topos is the classifying topos of something …

Which Heyting algbras arise out of some elementary topos which satisfies the ultrafilter pri...

I think your formulation of the ultrafilter principle implies the de Morgan law. Let $U$ be any proposition, consider the boolean algebra $A$ freely generated by an element $v$. so $A = \{ 0,1,v,\ne …

Non spatial atomic topos

Hello ! If I'm not mistaken, an atomic topos decompose as a disjoint sum of connected atomic topos, and Connected Atomic topos with a point corresponds to classifying topos of localic groups. But wh …

Representing a small allegory in a tabular allegory?

Let $A$ be a small allegory (like in Freyd and Scedrov book, or in the Elephant of Johnstone), does it always exists a tabular allegory $B$ and a fully faithfull representation of $A$ in $B$ ? I am e …

Simplification in Semi-continuous real ?

Ok I think I finally found an internaly valid proof by my self, so I explain it briefly here in case someone is interested some day : If $U \in \Omega$ is a subterminal object, you can define the ele …

questions of localization of topos

$i^*$ is the functor which send an object $X \in T$ to $X \times F$ with the natural projection as map into $F$. $i_*$ is a little harder to describe, if $p: Y \rightarrow F$ is an object of $T/F$, t …

Tietze transformations for sites of toposes

There are two observation to be made that limit a little this kind of analogy: 1) Site are indeed in some sense presentations, but an infinity theory (I mean with operation of infinite arity) somethi …

The 'gros' functor from schemes into (strictly) locally ringed topoi

So the final answer, is 'no', but there is still something interesting to say: Given any topos $\mathcal{T}$, the construction you are describing produces an equivalence of category between $\mathcal …

There is a more general form of Day's theorem that does pretty much that, at least for sub-canonical topologies: Theorem (Day): Let $C$ be a complete and co-complete Category, and $D \subset C$ a ful …

What are the "smallest" topoi?

Here are some examples, that should show you that there is a lot of countable toposes and lot of things in between finite sets and sets, too much to actually hope to list or classifies. First as I s …

Simplification in Semi-continuous real ?

Hi ! I'm considering in a general topos $T$ the object $R$ of lower semi-continuous real (one sided lower non-empty Dedekind cuts, as for exemple in http://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/one-sided+real+number …

Topos with enough points but not coherent

Here are some examples : For any topological space $X$, the topos of sheaf $\operatorname{Sh}(X)$ has enough points. In most cases this is not a coherent topos. If I remember correctly (for $X$ sober …

Does every category with a subobject classifier embed into a topos?

Ivan's example in the comment actually proves that all the questions have negative answers. As observed by Ivan, in the category of pointed set, there is a subobject classifier given by $\{*\} \to \{* …
