View on Github →feat(CategoryTheory/Sites): functors preserving 1-hypercovers are continuous (#13012)
Given a functor F : C ⥤ D
between categories equipped with Grothendieck topologies, the condition that F
preserves covers (developed in the file CategoryTheory.Sites.CoverPreserving
) does not obviously imply that F
is a continuous functor (i.e. the precomposition with F.op
of a sheaf is a sheaf). However, it becomes obvious if we require that F
preserves 1-hypercovers of a suitable size.
The general definitions involving continuous functors have been moved from Sites.CoverPreserving
to a new file Sites.Continuous
.
