Covariant Isotropy of Grothendieck Toposes

Category Theory 2021-04-29 v1 Algebraic Geometry

Abstract

We provide an explicit characterization of the covariant isotropy group of any Grothendieck topos, i.e. the group of (extended) inner automorphisms of any sheaf over a small site. As a consequence, we obtain an explicit characterization of the centre of a Grothendieck topos, i.e. the automorphism group of its identity functor.
