A Theory of Elementary Higher Toposes

preprint2022arXivOpen access

Abstract

We define an elementary ∞\infty-topos that simultaneously generalizes an elementary topos and Grothendieck ∞\infty-topos. We then prove it satisfies the expected topos theoretic properties, such as descent, local Cartesian closure, locality and classification of univalent morphisms, generalizing results by Lurie and Gepner-Kock. We also define ∞\infty-logical functors and show the resulting ∞\infty-category is closed under limits and filtered colimits, generalizing the analogous result for elementary toposes and Grothendieck ∞\infty-toposes. Moreover, we give an alternative characterization of elementary ∞\infty-toposes and their ∞\infty-logical functors via their ind-completions. Finally we generalize these results by discussing the case of elementary (n,1)-toposes and give various examples and non-examples.
