Subject: Fibred 2-category of Grothendieck toposes?
Date: Tue, 17 Jan 2017 11:27:14 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1cTUiS-0006yh-Rt@mlist.mta.ca> (raw)

This picks up a thread from a month ago, regarding an idea that
Grothendieck toposes, interpreted generally as geometric morphisms
bounded over the codomain base topos, might be treated in a 2- (or
bi-)fibrational way over a variable base.

I have now completed a paper "Arithmetic universes and classifying
toposes" that does this. It is submitted to arXiv, and meanwhile
available at

   http://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/~sjv/papersfull.php#AUClTop

The arithmetic universes enter in via a logic interpretable in any
elementary topos with nno. The "arithmetic" reasoning gives topos
results that are base-independent and also "geometric", in the sense
that when the base varies along a geometric morphism, the classifying
topos transforms by pseudopullback.

Steve.
