Counterexamples concerning $\infty$-topoi with infinite homotopy dimension
In "Higher Topos Theory", Lurie introduces three different notions of dimension for an $\infty$-topos $\mathcal{X}$, namely:
Homotopy dimension (henceforth h.dim.), which is $\leq n$ if $n$-...

$\infty$-topoi versus condensed anima
Let $ExDisc_\kappa$ denote the category of $\kappa$-small extremally disconnected topological spaces (for now fix a strong limit cardinal $\kappa$). There's a functor $ExDisc_\kappa \to \mathsf{RTop}$ ...

Which topoi are local with respect to Stone-Cech compactification?
Compact Hausdorff spaces $X$ are characterized among all topological spaces by the fact that for any topological space $S$, the embedding $S \to \beta S$ into its Stone-Cech compactification induces a ...

Do stalks see epimorphism of stacks?
Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a site and $f:\mathcal{F}\to \mathcal{G}$ a morphism of $2$-sheaves. According to https://mathoverflow.net/q/307366, this is an epimorphism if and only if it is almost surjective,...

Cohesion relative to a pyknotic/condensed base
Something that usefully emerged for me from this discussion and follow-up MO question is that rather than see cohesiveness and condensedness/pyknoticity in rivalry with one another, as my initial ...

Is $Set$ a tiny topos?
Let $Topos$ be the $(2,1)$-category of Grothendieck toposes and geometric morphisms. This is a $V$-sized, locally $V$-sized, locally locally small $(2,1)$-category with all small (2,1)-colimits (=...

Is there a condensed / pyknotic refinement of the shape of an $\infty$-topos?
Let $\mathcal E$ be an $\infty$-topos. Recall that Lurie defines the shape of $\mathcal E$ as the left-exact, accessible functor $\Gamma \Delta: Spaces \to Spaces$ where $\Delta: Spaces^\to_\leftarrow ...

Reflection principle vs universes
In category-theoretic discussions, there is often the temptation to look at the category of all abelian groups, or of all categories, etc., which quickly leads to the usual set-theoretic problems. ...

Computing cohomology using bounded hypercovers
Let $G$ be a Lie group (paracompact, not necessarily compact), and $A$ an abelian Lie group. I want to write down cocycles in $\mathrm{H^n}(\mathbf{B}G,A)$, the cohomology in the cohesive $\infty$-...

Object classifiers in 1-toposes
In a Grothendieck $\infty$-topos, it is known that, for arbitrarily large regular cardinals $\kappa$, there is a classifier for the class of relatively $\kappa$-compact morphisms. It is also easy to ...

Is there a Geometric/Smooth version of Homotopy Hypothesis using the path $\infty$-Groupoid of a Smooth Space?
A version of Homotopy Hypothesis says that the Fundamental $n$-grupoids model Homotopy $n$-types... and if we continue upto $\infty$, then the Fundamental $\infty$- groupoids or Kan Complexes model ...

Surprising examples of functors which preserve cofiltered limits but not all limits?
Question: What are some "surprising" examples of functors (resp. $\infty$-functors) $F$ which preserve cofiltered limits?
I'm not quite sure what "surprising" means, but I think ...

A couple of points in a proof about of $\infty$-toposes
I wanted to have a better understanding of the geometric interpretation of $\infty$-toposes, and in particular learn something about étale morphisms, but I got stuck trying to unravel two points in ...

Abelian versions of straightening and unstraightening functors
Let $X$ be a quasi-category (an inner Kan complex), let $\mathfrak{C}(X)$ be its rigidification (its associated simplicial category). J. Lurie in "Higher Topos Theory" proved the following theorem 2.1....

Characterization of geometric morphisms without referring explicitly to the left adjoint?
Recall that a functor $f_\ast : \mathcal E \to \mathcal F$ between toposes is called a geometric morphism if it has a left exact left adjoint $f^\ast$. Is there an intrinsic characterization of such ...
