Presheaf (category theory)

In category theory, a branch of mathematics, a presheaf on a category is a functor . If is the poset of open sets in a topological space, interpreted as a category, then one recovers the usual notion of presheaf on a topological space. A morphism of presheaves is defined to be a natural transformation of functors. This makes the collection of all presheaves on into a category, and is an example of a functor category. It is often written as . A functor into is sometimes called a profunctor. A presheaf that is naturally isomorphic to the contravariant hom-functor Hom(–, A) for some object A of C is called a representable presheaf. Some authors refer to a functor as a -valued presheaf.

Category Theory: The Beginner’s Introduction (Lesson 1 Video 2)

Lesson 1 is concerned with defining the category of Abstract Sets and Arbitrary Mappings. We also define our first Limit and Co-Limit: The Terminal Object, and the Initial Object. Other topics discussed include Duality and the Opposite (or Mirror) Category. Follow me on Twitter: @mjmcodr

Mr LIMA de CARVALHO e SILVA - From Essential Inclusions to Local Geometric Morphisms

It is well known that, given a site of denition, a subtopos of Grothendieck topos can be obtained by strengthening the Grothendieck topology, thus obtaining an inclusion of toposes. An essential inclusion is one where the inverse image functor of this inclusion has a left adjoint. Kelly an
