If I may, I'd like to add to my earlier question regarding the conditions
under which

C = B^A

the following:

If A and B are adequate and discrete, respectively, subcategories of C,
then objects of C can be represented as contravariant functors A --> B.

Please correct me if I'm mistaken.  Also, is this related to the theorem of
Roos in SGA4?

thank you,
posina
