Subgroupoids and Quotient Theories

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

Moerdijk's site description for equivariant sheaf toposes on open topological groupoids is used to give a proof for the (known, but apparently unpublished) proposition that if H is a strictly full subgroupoid of an open topological groupoid G, then the topos of equivariant sheaves on H is a subtopos of the topos of equivariant sheaves on G. This proposition is then applied to the study of quotient geometric theories and subtoposes. In particular, an intrinsic characterization is given of those subgroupoids that are definable by quotient theories.
