Grothendieck topology generated by a precoverage #

For any category C, we define the Grothendieck topology generated by a precoverage J on C. It is the smallest Grothendieck topology containing all the sieves generated by the covering presieves of J.

The main definitions and theorems are:

An auxiliary definition used to define the Grothendieck topology associated to a precoverage. See Precoverage.toGrothendieck.

Instances For

    The Grothendieck topology associated to a precoverage J. It is defined inductively as follows:

    1. If S is a covering presieve for J, then the sieve generated by S is a covering sieve for the associated Grothendieck topology.
    2. The top sieves are in the associated Grothendieck topology.
    3. Add all sieves required by the pullback stability condition of a Grothendieck topology.
    4. Add all sieves required by the local character axiom of a Grothendieck topology.

        An alternative characterization of the Grothendieck topology associated to a precoverage J: it is the infimum of all Grothendieck topologies containing Sieve.generate S for all presieves S in J.

        The main theorem of this file: given a precoverage J on C, a Type*-valued presheaf on C is a sheaf for the associated Grothendieck topology if and only if it is a sheaf for all pullback sieves of presieves in J.
