$\infty$-topos and localic $\infty$-groupoids?

It's known that every classical (Grothendieck) topos is equivalent to the topos of sheaves on a localic groupoid (a groupoid in the category of locales). For the record, this is proved by, starting ...

Homotopic version of Freyd's AT category observations

Freyd was the first to formalize a striking comparison between abelian categories and topoi, showing that their exactness properties can be jointly captured by the axioms of AT categories, and the ...

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 ...

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 ...

Is every colimit-generator dense in an $\infty$-topos?

Recall that there are various senses in which a full subcategory $G \subseteq C$ may "generate" a category $C$. For example, in order of increasing strength (under reasonable conditions): $G$ is a ...

What's wrong with the obvious argument that the unstable motivic category is an $\infty$-topos?

Fix a base scheme $S$, and let $Sm_S$ be the (ordinary) category of smooth schemes over $S$. Denote by $Psh(Sm_S)$ the $\infty$-category of $\infty$-presheaves on $Sm_S$. Let $Sh_{Nis}(Sm_S)\...

A model category for descent?

Recall that an $(\infty,1)$-category $C$ is said to have descent if for any small diagram $X:I\to M$ with (homotopy) colimit $\overline{X}$, the adjunction between $C/\overline{X}$ and "equifibered" $...

Using higher topos theory to study Cech cohomology

It seems to me that many classical statements about Cech cohomology should without much effort follow from Lurie's HTT, but I am struggling to fill out the details. I want to show that, given an ...

Does every exponentiable ($\infty$-)topos have enough points?

The notion of a coherent topos is a somewhat "refined" finiteness condition to put on a topos. One reason it is considered a "fruitful" notion is the Deligne completeness theorem, ...

Coherent objects in a hypercomplete $\infty$-topos

In Lurie's "Spectral Algebraic Geometry", Proposition A.6.6.1 (2) shows that for $\mathcal{X}$ an $\infty$-topos that is both locally coherent and hypercomplete, the full subcategory $\...

What is the exact definition of the $\infty$-topos of sheaves on a localic $\infty$-groupoid?

The category $\mathrm{Locale}$ is equivalent to the category $0\text{-}\mathrm{Topos}$ . The 2-category $\mathrm{LocalicGroupoid}$ (with suitable localization) is equivalent to the 2-category $1\text{...

Sheaf of compact Hausdorff spaces but not a condensed anima

Consider the site $\mathbf{CHaus}$ of compact Hausdorff spaces together with the finitely jointly surjective families of maps as coverings. Restriction induces an equivalence of categories $$ \mathbf{...

The tangent bundle and dual tangent bundle in topos theory

Let $\mathcal B = B \mathbb T$ be an $\infty$-topos, thought of as the classifying $\infty$-topos of some "$\infty$-geometric theory" $\mathbb T$. The notion of "$\infty$-geometric ...

Which sites in classical/derived algebraic geometry are hypercomplete?

Local questions: 1) Given a commutative ring $A,$ is $Sh_\infty\left(Spec(A)\right)$ hypercomplete? 2) Given a commutative ring $A,$ is $Sh_\infty\left(Et\left(A\right)\right)$ hypercomplete, where $...

How does nullification of $K(\mathbb{Z}, 2)$ compare to 1-truncation?

Let $B$ be a type (or space). A type (or space) is $B$-null if the canonical map $X \to X^B$ is an equivalence. The $B$-nullification of an arbitrary type $X$ is a $B$-null type $\bigcirc_B X$ ...
