   Just a couple of typos for now:

   anlogous; Phsyics

   And you have both ’Snglr’ and ’Snglrt’

   Format: MarkdownItexThanks, fixed now. I want to say $\mathbf{Snglrt}$ for the 2-category of *singulariTies* and $\mathbf{Snglr}\mathbf{H} \coloneqq PSh_\infty(\mathbf{Snglrt, \mathbf{H}})$ for the *singular* version of $\mathbf{H}$.

   Thanks, fixed now.

   Format: MarkdownItexThanks for the feedback. Just tried it as a presentation on an audience of topologists and mathematical physicists, and it seems to work well. Will post the video recording when it becomes available. (And I have added another remark that the document is in preparation and that references are (evidently?! :-) still missing.)

   Also,

   For further introduction to sheaf toposes see e.g. [Schreiber 2018] [Schapira 2023] and

   looks like ’and’ in the wrong place.

    A couple more:

    On p.4 in the line before

    In field theory this is the case for (Green-Schwarz type)…

    presumably the $p$ should be $n+2$ in $\mathbf{\Omega}^p_{dR}$.

    And there’s

    on p. 10.
