This paper solves the first of the open problems in topos theory posted by William Lawvere, concerning the existence of a Grothendieck topos that has proper class many quotient topoi. This paper concretely constructs such Grothendieck…

An exoflop takes a gauged Landau-Ginzburg (LG) model, partially compactifies it, and then performs certain birational transformations on it. When certain criteria hold, this can provide a crepant categorical resolution or equivalence of…

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…

We show that there is a bijection between the subtoposes of the classifying topos of a geometric theory T over a signature L and the closed geometric theories over L which are `quotients' of the theory T; next, we analyze how classical…

We show that a trivial case of Janelidze's categorical Galois theorem can be used as a key step in the proof of Joyal and Tierney's result on the representation of Grothendieck toposes as localic groupoids. We also show that this trivial…

We present a set of principles and methodologies which may serve as foundations of a unifying theory of Mathematics. These principles are based on a new view of Grothendieck toposes as unifying spaces being able to act as `bridges' for…

In this note, we present a few existence theorems for the quotient of a scheme by the action of a group. The first two sections are devoted to Grothendieck topologies and descent theory. The third one is dealing with quotients: we first…

This paper introduces a new family of models of intensional Martin-L\"of type theory. We use constructive ordered algebra in toposes. Identity types in the models are given by a notion of Moore path. By considering a particular gros topos,…

After reviewing the multiple roles of toposes - as generalized topological spaces, as universal invariants, as categorical analogues of the set-theoretic universe, and as semantic environments for first-order theories - we recall the notion…

We extend some classical results - such as Quillen's Theorem A, the Grothendieck construction, Thomason's Theorem and the characterisation of homotopically cofinal functors - from the homotopy theory of small categories to polynomial monads…

We show that the theory of De Morgan algebras has a model completion and axiomatise it. Then we prove that it is $\aleph_0$-categorical and describe definable and algebraic closures in that theory. We also obtain similar results for…

A full reflective subcategory E of a presheaf category [C*,Set] is the category of sheaves for a topology j on C if and only if the reflection preserves finite limits. Such an E is called a Grothendieck topos. More generally, one can…

Let M be a polynomially bounded, o-minimal structure with archimedean prime model, for example if M is a real closed field. Let C be a convex and unbounded subset of M. We determine the first order theory of the structure M expanded by the…

We study toposes of actions of monoids on sets. We begin with ordinary actions, producing a class of presheaf toposes which we characterize. As groundwork for considering topological monoids, we branch out into a study of supercompactly…

We present a way of topologizing sets of Galois types over structures in abstract elementary classes with amalgamation. In the elementary case, the topologies thus produced refine the syntactic topologies familiar from first order logic. We…

This paper allows one to obtain a criterion for the existence of a projectively invariant measure formulated in terms of combinatorial properties of a group (amenability of some canonical quotient group). Such necessary and sufficient…

We introduce the notion of an EILC topos: a topos $\mathcal{E}$ such that every essential geometric morphism with codomain $\mathcal{E}$ is locally connected. We then show that the topos of sheaves on a topological space $X$ is EILC if $X$…

We systematically investigate morphisms and equivalences of toposes from multiple points of view. We establish a dual adjunction between morphisms and comorphisms of sites, introduce the notion of weak morphism of toposes and characterize…
