In arXiv:1606.07885, many different Grothendieck topologies were introduced on the category of Azumaya algebras. Here we give a classification in terms of sets of supernatural numbers. Then we discuss the associated categories of sheaves…
This paper is a contribution to the study of extensions of arbitrary models of ZF (Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory), with no regard to countability or well-foundedness of the models involved. We present some new constructions of certain types…
In this paper, we identify some categorical structures in which one can model predicative formal systems: in other words, predicative analogues of the notion of a topos, with the aim of using sheaf models to interprete predicative formal…
Given a general finite group $G$, we consider several categories built on it, their Grothendieck topologies and resulting sheaf categories. For a certain class of transporter categories and their quotients, equipped with atomic topology, we…
We define the notion of sheaf in the context of doctrines. We prove the associate sheaf functor theorem. We show that grothendieck toposes and toposes obtained by the tripos to topos construction are instances of categories of sheaves for a…
We discuss the problem of characterizing the property of a Grothendieck topos to satisfy a given 'geometric' invariant as a property of its sites of definition, and indicate a set of general techniques for establishing such criteria. We…
We relate closure operations for ideals and for submodules to non-flat Grothendieck topologies. We show how a Grothendieck topology on an affine scheme induces a closure operation in a natural way, and how to construct for a given closure…
In the context of relative topos theory via stacks, we introduce the notion of existential fibred site and of existential topos of such a site. These notions allow us to develop relative topos theory in a way which naturally generalizes the…
Let I be a sigma-ideal sigma-generated by a projective collection of closed sets. The forcing with I-positive Borel sets is proper and adds a single real r of an almost minimal degree: if s is a real in V[r] then s is Cohen generic over V…
In this paper, we present a generalization of Grothendieck pretopologies -- suited for semicartesian categories with equalizers $C$ -- leading to a closed monoidal category of sheaves, instead of closed cartesian category. This is proved…
Let V be the universe of sets and V_{\alpha} the sets of rank \leq\alpha. We develop some axiom schemata for set theory based on the following three assumptions: 1. V \models ZFC 2. V is large with respect to the class of ordinals 3. V is…
We define a class of higher inductive types that can be constructed in the category of sets under the assumptions of Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory without the axiom of choice or the existence of uncountable regular cardinals. This class…
We show how one may establish proof-theoretic results for constructive Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory, such as the compactness rule for Cantor space and the Bar Induction rule for Baire space, by constructing sheaf models and using their…
Such large-structure tools of cohomology as toposes and derived categories stay close to arithmetic in practice, yet existing foundations for them go beyond the strong set theory ZFC. We formalize the practical insight by founding the…
We analyze the forcing notion $\mathcal P$ of finite matrices whose rows consists of isomorphic countable elementary submodels of a given structure of the form $H_{\theta}$. We show that forcing with this poset adds a Kurepa tree $T$.…
We give an accessible presentation to the foundations of nominal techniques, lying between Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory and Fraenkel-Mostowski set theory, and which has several nice properties including being consistent with the Axiom of…
We study a new proof principle in the context of constructive Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory based on what we will call "non-deterministic inductive definitions". We give applications to formal topology as well as a predicative justification…
Zeolitic Imidazolate Frameworks (ZIFs) are a family of metal--organic frameworks that feature metal centers tetrahedrally linked to imidazole-based ligands and adopt zeolite-like topologies. ZIFs formed by Zinc cations and imidazolate…
We regard a geometric theory classified by a topos as a syntactic presentation for the topos and develop tools for finding such presentations. Extensions of geometric theories, which can add axioms, symbols and sorts, are treated as objects…
This paper proposes an interpretation of Grothendieck's geometric universes as a foundational framework for \emph{information networks}. We argue that Grothendieck topologies, sheaves, and topoi provide a sheaf-theoretic semantics in which…
